I have three wood-fired ovens... I have one at my house, one at my ranch, one on the trailer that I use for charity events.

I get quite lazy about cooking because when I come back from work it is the last thing I want to do, really is spend loads of time cooking.

Some people seem to think their oven self-cleans, but you need to clean it to stop things getting blocked up so you get a good rotation of air and heat inside. Get a probe to test the oven is reaching what it says it's reaching too.

Good kitchen equipment is expensive, but most items last a lifetime and will pay for themselves over and over again.

I quite enjoy cooking but I'm not consistent. I can't follow the recipe book. If something goes well, I'll never make it again, which is completely stupid. It's a one-shot kind of deal.

If you just feel lazy and don't want to cook, then don't cook.

This we had to endure with a serious reduction in the price of goods - added to this early in the ensuing spring our glost oven fell while firing doing us considerable damage and rendering it necessary to build a new one.

Women are like ovens. We need 5 to 15 minutes to heat up.

Cooking involves a deadline and hungry people and ingredients that expire in a week. It's stressful. Cooking happens on the stove and on the clock. Baking happens with ingredients that last for months and come to life inside a warm oven. Baking is slow and leisurely.
