Emotional attachment ?


I was gonna just buy pre-maid frozen pie crust but may be some people will complain about it...lol So I made it from scratch. Now all I have to do is shoot the video of  how to make it. Hopefully this week. And I still have more requests to help. Sometimes I really feel I need bigger kitchen so I can cook easier and faster. But on the other hand, for some reason, I don't know why I enjoy cooking in this small kitchen now. May be it's just some kind of emotional attachment to this small kitchen? Because I've been cooking in this small kitchen for 4 years? Who knows...

冷凍のパイ生地を買って作ろうと思ったけど、文句言われそうだったから生地から作った。後は今週中に作り方を撮影できればいいけど。まだ他にも注文もらってるし。時々もっとおっきな台所が欲しいと感じる。もっと楽に早く料理できるし。そんな気持ちとは裏腹に、何故だろう?、この小さな台所で料理するのが楽しかったりする。これって4年間この小さな台所で料理してるからただ愛着が湧いてるだけ?なんだろう。。。

  1. That apple(?) pie looks lovely! I hope that's your next cooking video. ^_^

    I think maybe over the years, because you've been cooking so much and making videos to share with the world, you've developed fond memories and positive associations when in your little kitchen? That's why it makes you happy, because you know there's much support for all your efforts and that keeps you going back for more. Kind of the way you always return to making/ordering pizza because you know it'll make you happy (like a drug!).
    At least that's what psychologists would say :P

    Love your work Taro! Keep it up! ^_^

  6. I hope you do post a video on pastry crust. It's a very important part of a lot of good recipes. Can't wait to see it.

  8. Hi runnyrunny 999,

    I found your youtube channel recently and I love it! I don't think you need to worry about people's criticism about your cooking skills cuz I think you're great and you make it look so easy. Trust me cuz I am a cooking addict! I also think your English is pretty good too!

    I am wondering if you have considered putting a brief recipe to accompany the video. I know the video shows every step but it's easier to have a recipe to follow while I'm cooking since it will be too hard to rewind the video while cooking.

    Thank You and looking forward to more videos!

  10. Making your own pie crust from scratch sounds challenging. Even Jamie Oliver uses store bought ones. And like you, I have a tiny kitchen which I personally thought was too cramped. But looking at it another way, humans are habitual creatures and we do get use to the small space and find it a bonus instead.
