Sorting Through the Clutter
If you somehow were able to unearth my diary amidst the clutter of my room, then you would probably find something like this...

I love fresh herbs.

I just finished a 10-week cooking course and I am so much more enamoured by this wondering work of cooking that so many of my friends have already ventured into.

One of the most important lessons that I learned in the 10 weeks is that you should ALWAYS cook with fresh herbs. Trust me, coming from a person that thoughts basil came in the shape of little square flakes, those wise words were very much appreciated. I don't even need much salt/soy sauce/Maggi sauce when I cook now. I used to think the dried herbs and spices were used mainly for aesthetic purposes. What a fool I was.

The smell of Marinara sauce infused with fresh basil, oregano, and thyme is intoxicating. Oh, I have fallen in love with fresh rosemary. When I chop up rosemary, all I want to do is sprinkle it on myself. It smells divine. Absolutely divine.
