Cooking allows you to have travels, adventures and journeys without going anywhere. The running joke between my partner and me is that I'm not really concerned about how long it takes, or how much I destroy the kitchen, because I just have such a good time doing it.
When I come home from a shoot, I'd rather reheat food I've made than eat takeout.
I went in saying I wanted to be the food guy.
