Here is the preface of Nick Foster’s new book Married to Food.
Preface
My mother was lousy at cooking. To her, cooking was more like an
exciting experiment. You put some of this and some of that in a pot, and you
wait and see what will happen. “No experiments, no experiences.” is what
she would say when her experiment did not turn out good, and I heard that
a lot. My father was a good cook, and he loved to cook, too. He often said that
he got my mother to marry him with a table of delicious food, not with a
beautiful ring. “A family needs only one good cook,” he said. Now I am a cook myself. And I have my own restaurant. I learned how
to cook from my father, of course. From him, I learned the art of cooking.
But I did learn one thing from my mother. It’s her famous saying: “No
experiments, no experiences.” preface 前言 experiment 實驗 【題組】25. What can we learn from the preface?
