While I certainly agree with what you said, I always found that cooking for the person (or people) you love is something truly special. I'm not a chef, but I've been cooking since I was 9 (thanks to my Mom) and I've always taken my cooking quite seriously. Simply put, I love preparing a good meal. I guess my philosophy can be summed up in this quote from the book Serve the People - A Stir-Fried Journey Through China by Jen Lin-Liu:

“To cook for someone, one on one, is to let that person into your life in an intimate way.”

Pretty much says it all, I'd say!

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
