#197 Make up a dish

No one makes a cake like E does. All of my friends, both male and female, have talked about stealing her away from me. I wont let them. She makes the most amazing cake creations. And I don’t know where that knowledge comes from. Is she a distant cousin of Willy Wonka or does she just love cakes so much that she must do the best she can to satisfy her own pastaierie needs?
The weirdest part is that she never uses a recipe. She is the Miles Davis of cakes. She’s all jazz when she bakes. It's like nougat is running through her veins and her fingers grow almonds instead of nails. She knows what ingredients will go great together and which should be kept away from each other. Instead of googling the recipe on the net like other mortal girlfriends, she throws together the best cakes in an hour. Therefore, I have no respect for recipes. I'm tired of cookbooks. There is a magic that disappears. Of course we can cook. We are human beings. We love food. Who is Jamie Oliver or Padma Lakshmi to tell us how to cook food? Use your imagination and cook whatever you want to. You can make a curry salad like no one else before. Your friends will ask for the bun recipe and you can proudly stand up and say that there is no recipe. That it just came to you as inspiration. As a flash.
