Sounds like you hold very little value for yourself... one can only
imagine the food you serve yourself makes POW slop look like it could
be served at the Hilton.
More than with all other senses people eat with their eyes.... when
food looks attractive it tastes better too. If I ordered chicken at a
restaurant and it arrived looking like that I'd get up and walk out. I
arrange food more attractively than that when it's left overs I
package for my freezer. I'd arrange that chicken more attractively
were I putting it in a pet bowl to serve my cats on the floor.
I've never seen anything you've cooked, you probably don't, your
larder must consist of pasta you eat cold from the can.
