I don't have an organized mind about everything. I can never find my keys... or glasses... or phone... But when it comes to planning for a meal, it's like my brain is a card catalog. I can rifle through various details about components, preparation and plating and I can picture how the whole process will play out, market to table, like a story.
I love that process. The preparation, the anticipation, the creation and the satisfaction of a well prepared meal. It's not that they all turn out great. I'm no expert. But I love to experiment and learn as I go.
