Wanderer or Route Rider ...which type are you?

[metallyguitarded_imp]

I truly admire and am somewhat envious of the wanderers. I am a route follower except on those rare occasions when I get lost. Getting lost doesn't cause me any anxiety and I've actually enjoyed it. Still, I'm more of a planner. Just like on those rare occasions when my wife asks me to cook dinner. I better have a recipe in front of me or I'm in a panic. I watch in amazement those shows where chefs put in a dash of this, a pinch of that, taste, then adjust. How much is a pinch? And a dash has to be less, right? But how much less?! Adjust? Exactly how big of an adjustment are we talking about? I wonder if there's a correlation between riders who are wanders and cooks who aren't wedded to recipes.
