WHAT’S COOKING & ONE SURE WAY TO DE-STRESS!!??

After close to 10 years of living out of home across many cities and eating out 3 meals a day, I am entering my sixth month of eating simple and delicious (I promise it is) home-made food. I make it just with my own hands in case you are wondering.

But why didn’t I do this before? Why didn’t I prepare food for myself prior to this? Well, 2 reasons: One, I thought cooking was too much of hard work to invest one’s time and energy. I totally realize today how incorrect that thought was. Two, I had restaurants/eat outs around to ensure I didn’t really feel the pinch of stepping out for every meal (that kills leme tell you)

The second reason was probably what pushed me to start cooking now. Believe me, there isn’t a single outlet near my home for a quick early morning breakfast or a simple lunch. This precisely got me thinking even as I was about to finalize this house ( I liked the place on first view) to get started on my culinary skills and boy, I am happy as punch to share that I do make a decent meal. I am so happy and thrilled about this. It has brought to me so much self reliance and a feeling of contentment that it’s hard to exactly describe.

Having said that, it surely is a big de-stresser for me especially at the end of a week day even if it means I am back home 8.30-9ish. All I need 30-45 mins to make something up and its yummy tummy!!!!Well I just about finished my dinner and now you know why there is a zing in my tone JJJ
