John Barrows and Patrick Barrows aka, Cluck & Quack, present a network for cooking in a more improvisational fashion, for discovering one's own culinary heritage, and for the embracing of simple wholesome cuisine using fresh and local ingredients whenever possible.

Feel free to ask us any questions you may have regarding food and cooking. We respond promptly to all cooking questions and food questions at our NING site..........

.........We started a NING network to engage foodies like us in an on-going and ever-expanding dialogue about improvisational cooking. If you sign up for a Ning username and password, you can join the "How I Taught My Brother To Cook" site and then..................


1. Post, and comment on, Blogs. (This will be the best place to talk about cooking and food in general.)
2. Join, and initiate, Forums. (This will be place where we can post our recipes, or ask for recipe ideas and cooking tips.)
3. View other members' pages by clicking on their images.
4. Ask us, and others, for recipe ideas, tips on becoming a more improvisational cook - and offer your advice to us as well.
5. Upload your videos and photos.
6. Invite others to join.

7. Buy the book!
