A Sense of Accomplishment.

Cooking. When the final project comes out, I feel a tremendous sense of accomplishment. It does not really matter to me whether the dish is amazingly tasty or not; it's always a learning process that you can use to gain information from to apply to future recipes. I really like everything about food; going to the grocery store, chopping up food, smelling food, the way it makes people happy.

I am not usually so positive about hard work (being a hedonist and all) but cooking really just blows my hair back. Thought I might share.
