Twisted Basics: Laugh, Cook, Eat! is about creating intimacy through cooking. After all, humans have been obsessed with food since the beginning of time. It defines us geographically, ethnically, culturally and economically. It has been a focus in her life since childhood. It is her vocation, entertainment, art form and passion. Recent studies have shown that the average American eats out 4-6 times a week. The fast pace of contemporary living sells the idea that there is no time to cook. Cooking seems old-fashioned; but what has really happened is that the public has collectively been sold a bill of goods. Premade entries, extensive deli's and takeout lure you away from something that feeds you not only physically but emotionally. Cooking done with care is an act of love. Julia Child has said, "You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces, just good food from fresh ingredients."
