Calling all TFP "Foodie's"
 

First I have to say that I don't like the term "Foodie", it's too trendy, but I haven't been able to come up with a better term (I'm an avid "cook" and lover of food, not a "chef".)

Please keep thread's/recipe's coming folks, Cooking hasn't fallen prey to the consolidating process like other forum's yet, but it might if us TFP cooks don't keep it alive and active.

I readily admit I'm guilty of that which I speak. I was missing in action on the TFP for a bout but I have been back for a little while now and I frequently check Cooking, only to see little activity. I'm not changing the state of things by just reading instead of posting.

I plan to start more threads about recipes or foods, or asking for recipes or advice. I will even start threads about seemingly silly things that most of us would feel stupid to ask ("There are no stupid question's, only stupid answers", or something along those lines). I would like to encourage other members to do the same.

There seems to be a core group of members that post in "Cooking" and I would love for all of us to be more active to see this forum a little bit more lively.

Whether you agree or disagree or are indifferent, this is my plea!

Be careful what you wish for alicat.....

*evil grin*

What are you looking for most? I would be happy to add what knowledge I have.

Holy fast post Midnight! I have no need for knowledge at this time but that changes daily, if not hourly! Actually, do you suggest eggshell or satin for a livingroom wall? :D

always been partial to semi-gloss myself. *snicker*

I've been cooking seriously (3 times a day now!) for myself since about 6 months ago. I work from home and finally got sick of all the expense and unhealthiness of restaurant food.

Just joined TFP (well, technically I joined a while back but.. ) so hopefully I'll be contributing now.

you're right about "foodie" - i prefer "Domestic Chemist"

you can add a teaspoon of taragon &/or a tablespoon of parsley to the sauce too

The Titled Cooking topics seem to go in spurts. Several at once, then many days between posts. I think it will survive.

Yes, the term foodie has become too trendy. I mean, I saw a commercial where Campbell's soups claim to be "The Foodie's Choice" or some shyte like that. Campbells? Huh? They are the biggest most un-foodie-ish soup producer in the US.

i love food i love cooking and i love eating, so i'll be posting from time to time here. i can post recipes or tidbits of info, whatever you all want...
