Happy Tuesday Everyone
what makes you focused or motivated ? Share with us what makes you motivated everyday ?... money, life, gratitude, survival.... For me, being thrown in the deep end and rebuilding myself again is my motivation, but most of all being blessed with good family support and friends ( Skool peeps as well),

Just being able to enjoy a sunny day here in England. I am surrounded by books and have about 30 bird books. We had to go into Eastbourne town centre and I popped my head into Waterstones, bought another book, Britain's Birds! I always have room for another book.

You all may have realized my life has taken a turn but I am on the right track. My cooking has come to a halt unfortunately, at work I have skilled Chef's and at home my mother takes care of me ( as mother's do) So if you ever want a Asian Dish being made first hand left me know, and I will do a video recording my Chef's do what they do best.

Bread and Cheese
I love cheese — properly love it. I used to hop over to Bruges every three months just to stock up, like some people go for a weekend break and I go for a dairy pilgrimage. When I owned a place in Torrevieja, I’d snake my way through France and Spain, stopping at every farmstall I could find, hunting down whatever local cheese they were proud of that week. And whenever I had the time, I’d bake my own crackers and bread to go with it, because nothing beats pairing good cheese with something you made yourself.

@Elena Maren Goats have that signature smell... first time I ever ate goats cheese was in Italy and it tasted as bad as a goat smells. It was gross... Then I was given toast with tomato and cheese and loved it, only after I ate it did I discover it was goats cheese... now I love it.
Burger and Sauces
I am a lazy cook, I like simple recipes and use bases that I work from. In a food business this is the key to being cost effective. I have been to Steak houses and have been surprised to see that they offer maybe 3 sauce choices when in fact they could offer a wide variety in a few minutes. Here is a great burger and 6 great sauce flavours from one base sauce.

@Sandy Chong Hi Sandy... yes, prawns are a problem here in England too, even the Parktown Prawns are double the size.
