Yummy November
Last night, I purchased a copy of Yummy Magazine's November issue (PHP 95). Although I've heard of the magazine before, I've only downloaded a sample issue in the past but never bought a hard copy.
Franco of Table for Three, Please, one of the food blogs I follow, first called my attention to bloggers being part of the issue. I was drawn to the magazine even before I got hold of it. After all, in it too were Marketman, Toni of Wifely Steps, Anton of Our Awesome Planet, ChichaJo of 80 Breakfasts and Connie of Pinoycook. These people are icons in the Philippine blogosphere. I read their blogs all the time. And yes, I am a fan.
Of the essays that they contributed, ChichaJo's touched me the most. After all, I am so like the person that she was. I have no experience in the kitchen. When I stayed in the US for 4 months, my meals for the first 2 months were either microwaveables, store bought or reheated "take homes" from Pinoy parties. But she learned to cook and is now one of the acknowledged experts among the foodies in the blogosphere. Hop on to her blog and see why. And she takes the most amazing pictures too.
Maybe I can learn to cook too. Somehow, I am still in the no cook zone but at least my entry to Lasang Pinoy 21 got me into preparing something in the kitchen after a long time.
Ratatouille's Chef Gusteau says "Anyone can cook". Maybe I can. Maybe one of the recipes in this month's Yummy Magazine is a good place to start.

I enjoyed this issue of Yummy! And through that bloggers section, I got to learn about Table for Three and Bogchinoypi! :)
I too enjoyed Joey's article a LOT! Nakakatuwa how she learned to love cooking. Loved her storytelling.
Same here. Only found out about bogchinoypi thru the magazine.
Oh wow! I am so happy that my story resonated with you :) I know what it's like to take those first tentative steps into the kitchen, unsure still about what it holds. Have no fear! As long you like to eat you can learn to cook :) Feed yourself first...let your taste be your guide. Eating and cooking invlove all the senses so remember to taste, touch, smell, look, and listen (yes listen!) every step of the way. And above all else, have fun! :) Thanks for making my day :)
Chichajo, thanks for the vote of confidence.
