hmmm....the moodie foodie.

@hankster Pretty much sums it up. I don't have much of an innate hunger drive. I need to be craving it to make it.

@Amzungu if I didn't have my Hunger Drive I'd be calling the Dr. that last sentence I'm gonna pass on.

@hankster I was on prednisone once for a couple of months for a migraine that wouldn't go away and that is the only time in my life I've ever 'felt' hungry. It was amazing. Otherwise, there are times when I'd be so busy I'd forget to eat and only notice after a couple days when my blood sugar dropped. As for the last sentence, my reference to food isn't relevant across the spectrum of cravings or drives.

@Amzungu sorry about the migraine, there's something really satisfying about satiating that hunger feeling.

@hankster Yes, indeed, there is.

only thing like that I remember preheating is a cast iron skillet for cornbread.

@hankster if you want a medium rare steak with a sear, preheating is helpful...

@Cutiebeauty I'll try to remember that. usually with the steak I head or the grill. is there something about a Sear that makes it better?

@hankster a sear seals in the juices and adds flavor.

@Cutiebeauty does it work if I'm going to cook a steak medium or medium well?

@hankster it sure does...

@Cutiebeauty next time it's raining and I'm thinking steak......thanks

so....do you add boiling water? lay it out in the sun for awhile? just eat popsicles?

@hankster I cook for one.most of the time. I don't bake. I won't roast a turkey. Steaks no roasts. I can cook. Every chance I get to. To hell with the instructions my oven is filled with pots and pans and stuff which was supposed to be temporary 18 years ago. It became permanent. Oven's clean.
