Food and writing are my two favorites.

Rather than saying that he likes words, he is a bit arty. Xiao Ke is neither sophisticated in the literary and art circles nor leisurely in the petty bourgeoisie. He is mediocre and mediocre. He only likes words. Food is also a bit luxurious to me, because most of the food I like is not available in elegant halls, cannot be served on banquets, is hidden in the mountains and forests, and is hidden in the market, and is not worthy of the taste of a glutton. For example, sweet potatoes roasted in the wild, edamame cooked in the countryside, or mung bean porridge next to the movie theater when I was a child. Every time I mention it, my wife shakes her head next to me.

Some people like the rigorous antithesis of ancient style writing.

I don’t have any experience in tasting delicious food, and I am not a foodie who searches for delicious snacks everywhere. If others ask me where to find delicious food? I was more confused. I just like the feeling of delicious food, especially the color combination of the dishes. For example, put some green dishes on a white plate and garnish with a few bright red wolfberries. For me, simple, light, and pleasing to the eye are better than the food itself. More interesting.

In addition, when I see the white and translucent tableware, I can't help but think of words such as skin like gelatin and hands like catkins. My wife seriously criticized my unhealthy thinking. The exquisite tableware at the fingertips makes sparks fly and the mind is excited. The same goes for the composition. Every time in the dead of night, I occasionally come across one or two good sentences. I toss and turn, ecstatic and unable to sleep at night. 2

In fact, cooking and writing are quite similar.

A good chef should make meals that are both delicious and delicious. A good literati should also write words that are both spiritual and physical, and can stand the test of time.

Although I don’t cook much, I still have some experience. Food requires a kitchen and condiments such as onions, ginger, and garlic. Cooking requires a combination of meat and vegetables and balanced nutrition. Composition requires a study. Of course, lying down It can also be done on the bed, it requires emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, joy, and a thoughtful resonance with the reader, and a collision of ideas, in order to finally win the reader's respect for the text.

Usually I don’t have many opportunities to cook, but I always like to show off my cooking skills on WeChat. My wife is quite critical of this. It seems that in real life, I am really a virtuous family cook. , In fact, this is not the case. This is really my fault. I have been in the limelight and taken the credit from my wife. It is a bit inappropriate and unkind.

However, I still like the feeling of cooking, especially when I am in a good mood (which is only a few times a year anyway). Cooking requires mood, just like writing requires mood. When a chef is in a good mood, the food he cooks will be more delicious. I am the same, standing in the kitchen, looking at the chicken, duck, fish, vegetables and radish on the chopping board, like a general commanding thousands of troops.

"You, do the hard work!"

"You, go pick up the fish!"

In my family of three, this general Ranked low, no one usually listens to what he says. Finally, he has the opportunity to be the master of the house, and he will not miss it.

"Want to eat?"

"Go to work!"

Calm down, I'll have a drink first, don't make the chef unhappy, I want to cook. 3

Like food more to fill our stomachs so that we can go further in the wind and rain. Like words to prevent our souls from sinking and feel the beauty of the world with a pure heart.
