Now We’re Cooking!

December 04, 2009

It took me long enough, but I’m finally here.

I wanted to write a cookbook that was more than a cookbook. Something that would teach men who had no clue how to shop, cook, or pay attention to the details in order to impress their significant others and improve their lives. Something I’ve done with friends and customers in person for years.

When you cook, and I’m talking more than mac and cheese or dialing out for pizza, you learn some elemental truths that seep into the rest of your life-and the way you treat your partner.

Clean is good.

Adding spice can make a bland dish sizzle

Don’t forget something you left simmering, or the whole meal can fall apart

There’s always room for Jell-O (Just making sure you were listening)

I’m not talking anything fancy. Foodies beware. I don’t claim to be a Food Network star, though I do have plans to begin a Youtube channel attached to this website by February. I just have a lot of guy friends who don’t understand how fulfilling it can be to create something for someone who truly appreciates it, and a lot of girl friends who wish their men were more attentive. And good food is the common denominator.

I love good food. It comforts, it makes you smile, it can remind you of home or send your imagination across the globe. And if you make it for someone you care about, and everything comes out perfectly and she loves it? Magic.

So here we are. …And He Can Cook! should be out in the next week or so. Just dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. My website is up, and in my humble opinion, it rocks. My blog is online. And life tastes sweet.

Don’t think this will just be an ordinary cooking blog. I’ll have romance writers who offer glimpses into a woman’s psyche, glimpses most men desperately need. And I’ll be here to help every step of the way, talking about relationships and recipes.

So are you ready? Let’s get cooking.

    Even though I’m not a guy and I already know how to cook, I’m excited to see you’ve finally got a blog and can’t wait to see what you post.

    As someone who has had the pleasure of experiencing your recipes, I say “Look out world. You are about to have your senses taken to the heights. Nothing Chef K conjures up is in any way ordinary. You prove over and over that the way to a woman’s heart is the same as to a man’s…through her stomach.” Wow! Congratulations.

    Yay-the site is up! I can’t wait until the book is out-my b/f needs it immediately, since I’m one of those authors you’ll be talking to about dating and relationships, which means I have deadlines, which means someone please put some food on my desk and back away slowly. Thank God you’re here-we neeeeeed you, Chef Lee!
    And BTW-there IS always room for Jell-o. Just sayin’…:)

  7. Great site! Congrats on getting it up and running. Can’t wait to see the book *yay*
