Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Also, check out Kenji Lopez-Alt's Food Lab stuff on Serious Eats -- he used to work for CI, and loves an experiment. [link] (And actually, the most recent Lab is about steak.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Cook's Illustrated is the most sciencey, I think. I've got their New Best Recipe book.
CI has a newish cookbook called something like The Science of Cooking that I really really want.
