I'm very visual too. Have you seen these sites? They are like visual recipe searches. So inspirational for us visual types. (edited to add: wow, how many times can I say visual in one paragraph?)

I learned to cook a little bit from before I left home, and after that it was mostly trial and error, following recipes, and observing others. My dear mum gave me a good basic cookbook to take with me, I consulted that a lot. I think I still have it somewhere!
