Top Chef finale tonight. Please FSM and all other deities in the firmament, send all the winner love to Carla, because Hosea is a passive-aggressive null set and Stefan is a pig. (Well, he’s like a pig but without the charm or taste.)
Our girl Carla, though, she knows that what the world needs now is love:
I believe that all of the emotions you are feeling when you’re cooking
food, especially when you share it with other people, go into the food.
I really do call love the secret ingredient because if you’re in a
happy place — if you’re happy about anything — it’s not just cooking,
if you’re happy taking out the trash, if you’re happy about doing the
laundry, you do a good job. When you don’t want to do something, you
don’t do it well. It’s as simple as that really. Cooking food is a
passion that I have and I enjoy seeing people enjoy the food and that’s
why I do it. My biggest fear was doing something I did not love. Being
40 and hating my job. So now that I love my job, everybody benefits. I
benefit, the people who eat my food benefit and it’s a great thing. I
think the country would be totally better; actually the world would be
very different if everybody loved what they did.
