Experimental cooking can be a source of deep joy--or agony--depending on how it turns out. The perfect meal shared with a good companion puts me in a deliciously good mood. But unhealthy, un-tasty, untimely meals put me in a frump. This is my quest for good foods and good moods.

Em can cook...
Do you remember the good ole days when the only cooking shows were on PBS? Frugal Gourmet? Yan Can Cook? I recently bought Martin Yan's Quick and Easy cookbook... sort of a pan-Asian tome with lovely photos and a lot of Cantonese classics as well as jazzier Thai and Vietnamese inspired fare.
I've been salivating over the thing for at least a month now, but I finally made one of the recipes tonight... Catfish with Black Bean Sauce on a bed of bok choy. Maybe it's not very pretty, but since I rarely make Chinese food, I have to document my accomplishment.
