Cook the stress away!

Everyone has bad days for sure, those days when you're stressed at work, frustrated with friends, in a fight with someone, full of anger for some reasons. Try to deal with it by cooking! Okay, unless cooking frustrates you even more, then that's another story. You don't have to be good, you just have to cook! Cook away all the frustrations mixed with the stresses and eat them up. At one point, you'll forget everything and start cooking with love.
