Unbridled Kitchen Love Affairs & Bunny Rabbits
I swear, I’m going to boondoggle this title and the twain, shall eventually meet! Trust me on this, I won’t let you down, you’re in for some great entertainment. Tear open a hefty bag of popcorn (extra buddha) and don’t forget the nachos, you’re going to need them, Clive! Crunch! Crunch!
I was inspired to post this blog about “Rabbits” after reading a great blog entitled, “What I learned from Chef”. The author, whom I truly, honestly and unequivocally believe to be “The” Ayn Rand, reincarnated, happens to occupy the top echelon of my all-inspiring blog mentors.
Tara DeWhitt Coomans, writes, “Distinctly, I remember where I was when I read Chef Keller’s French Laundry. At the time, I wasn’t much of a cook – more of a eater than a cooker was I – but I had worked in many restaurants and already been inspired by food. In this book, Chef Keller recalls the first time he killed and dressed a rabbit; each cringe inducing detail of screaming rabbits and breaking bones serves as a reminder from Keller that no food should be squandered. I read and re-read that passage. “Because killing those rabbits was such an awful experience. I would not squander them. I would use all my powers as chef to ensure that those rabbits were beautiful. “ He was so right when he said that it was easy to go to the store and purchase meat, but if you have to kill it yourself, you never forgot its value.”
That explains the rabbit part of my blog. Now for the amore, agape, love, lust and steamy passion! What can be more appropriate then to quote, Williams Wordsworth’s, “Splendour in the Grass”
"Though nothing can bring back the hour,
Of splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind;"
The video is about “Splendour In The Kitchen”, although it’s not smart to participate in such a tête-à-tête. We all know, it happens, we’ve all witnessed the flames that are totally unrelated to the stove tops. The rapture and crushing adulation that is supposed to remain... hush, hush!
S E C R E T S never stay S E C R E T in the kitchens.
Enjoy the clip and we look forward to your comments.
