In The Making and Thinking
I can't help but share my process while cooking today. That's because I haven't made food using traditional ingredients for a long time.
In this recipe, I use banana leaves to wrap food. Previously, I went to the grove next to the house and took banana leaves.
I got the idea to make this menu because I have a supply of mushrooms. I'm bored with just sauteing these mushrooms. So, making a traditional menu that uses banana leaves wrappers is a great idea.
Cooking and Thinking A New Thing
Cooking for me is no longer just a daily activity. I have changed cooking as an activity to create content that then generates money to fulfill my living needs.
Then when I cook, I usually get new ideas related to writing.
Basically, I love writing creative texts such as prose, poetry, and philosophy. I often get life philosophies when I am doing my daily activities. It increases my knowledge and way of thinking about seeing and living life.
Thinking about new things while cooking increases the value of my time which is increasingly useful. Even though it can be said is multitasking, but in my opinion, it doesn't burden my brain, it's different from other multitasking.
Cooking activities that are usually accompanied by thinking include the types of cooking activities that do not require high focus. So I can do multitasking to think of other things. Cooking activities that do not require high focus such as chopping food ingredients, shaping food ingredients into shapes for certain presentations such as printing cookies for example.
Creative and Imaginative Process
The creative process for producing work becomes personal. From one person to another, it varies. My creative progress occurs more often when I am washing dishes, cooking, and walking alone.
I feel life-embracing me so beautifully as I have an unexpected imaginative creative process. Many article ideas, fictional scenes, or life philosophies were given to me by life. Then, I pick up those things simply, in the kitchen, for example. Or when I'm enjoying the morning air with coffee, which sometimes I don't drink until it's cold.
Well, the photos I used today are fresh from my kitchen from the process of making Banana Leaves Wrapped Steamed Mushrooms.
I will share the complete recipe with you on my next blog.
Thanks for reading my blog!

Hi @anggreklestari , I just love your way of thinking, you put so much of your soul in what you do and your posts portray this, thank you for sharing. Every day is a new experience.
Do something w love is powerful. :)
Thank you for reading and have a great day for you.

Thank you :)
I think this relates well to the "What do you do before enlightenment? Chop wood, carry water. What do you do after enlightenment? Chop wood, carry water." :)
But yes, I'm always daydreaming and thinking about philosophies and ideas while doing mundane tasks as well. I used to listen to audiobooks when doing some of these tasks, but I haven't been doing that much of late.
I prefer to listen to podcasts about life.
Some things are too much to do together because they require more focus.
Ini macam masak ikan dipepes dik ya?
Ini saya bikin pepes jamur kukus kak. Iya caranya mirip-mirip tapi kalau pepes ikan tentu banyak bumbunya supaya gak amis.:)
Iya benar, jadi kepengin buat pepes lihat postnya @anggreklestaleo 🥰
It is one of the best therapies for mental health, write down your thoughts while cooking or while doing some task at home. It also boosts your creativity.
Poetry, prose, philosophy and among others, is a good tool to help you see life better, I congratulate you for that and for how intelligent you are, also very creative, you have already demonstrated it many times in your work here.
Thank you for sharing these pictures, you are very good with the camera. :D
Writing and cooking are my best therapies now.
Then, I'm glad to know many great people here.

I was hoping you will share the recipe with the images I'm seeing. Unfortunately, it's been a while I come across any edible mushrooms around here, would have loved to try the recipe out when you post it.

I love your thoughts in this post. I had some that were similar today.
I am now doing things I have never done before, and I think that is largely because of hive and that I am seeing new things to write about. This inspires me to do new things. Even though a post took me many hours to make but earned very little, I have still been enriched by what I learned, or the meal I ate, or the medicine I produced.
Became a content creator makes me learn every day. I already gave up badly If I didn't found Blockchain in the past.
Enjoy little things and do not count everything for money, that makes us alive.
Have a great weekend ❤️

I love how you combine cooking with coming up with new writing ideas. My kitchen is outside so when I am cooking I am usually distracted by the fauna and flora around me. Looking forward to your recipe. We have many banana trees in the garden but I don't have much experience cooing in their leaves. Have a great day!
Have a great dah with Hive price ❤️
Hey flora and fauna great too :)
I really enjoy many of the things that make Hive a natural fit for me. I enjoy cooking, writing, reading others, photography etc etc. I guess that is why I have always enjoyed Hive and Steemit before Hive!
I feel you :)
So much fun, right? :)
