JohnnyBlaze Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Sure, it depends on our mood. But, for the most part, I think we're in certain moods more than others. Or, at least, moods we TRY to be in. Recently when I'm cooking I've been listening to a Best Of Steely Dan cd. It's upbeat and relaxing at the same time. Good for cooking I think. When I'm eating I generally go with any number of albums from Bob Marley & The Wailers. Happy music, happy eating. When my wife chooses the music it's generally one of those "sounds of nature" type recordings: birds, ocean waves, chimes, etc. It's soothing for sure but one day I may pass out in my rice bowl!

Lucas Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 cooking is different When I take time to prepare a meal, I wanna feel inspired and alive We've got this older internet radio in the kitchen, but it is awesome and loud ...

EagleMoon Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Usually something instrumental or new age-y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 Usually something instrumental or new age-y.That's true for me too actually. There's a mid-90s new age album called "In Existence" by Beautiful World that gets a lot of play at dinner time (& house cleaning time too) in Chateau Blaze. I had never heard of that artist and only got it because it was on sale for like a buck about 20 years ago. It turned out to be quite good for what I use it for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I don't recall listening to music while cooking/eating that often. Very rare for me to do that. Is that a normal thing people do? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted July 9, 2016 Author Share Posted July 9, 2016 I don't recall listening to music while cooking/eating that often. Very rare for me to do that. Is that a normal thing people do? Of the 11 TRFers who posted, 6 do, 4 don't, and 1 listens to Jaws. I don't always listen when I cook or eat but it's at least half the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) Just up the street from my shop, a new deli opened .. The owner's son has celiac syndrome, so there is a ton of stuff on the menu for those who don't eat wheat / gluten I am so frickin' excited right now because on the way home from work, I bought a huge grilled chicken sub - something I have not had in 6 years as finding a good sub roll and deli was nearly impossible .. It is so good So anyway, to match the mood, I've got AKB48 blasting http://www.jpopsuki.tv/video/AKB48---Iiwake-Maybe-%2528eng-subbed%2529/5524da94805c286985f588aab9d33812 Edited July 9, 2016 by Lucas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
