The Kitchen: My Happy Place


Cooking is my solace. When life’s demands are about to overwhelm me, that is when I escape to my happy place – the kitchen. And today, I really needed to go to my happy place. As soon as I entered it, I instinctively pulled out my chef’s knife, a chopping board and a bulb of garlic. Chopping vegetables is always a relaxing, almost Zen-like, activity for me. And, minced garlic is always a useful ingredient to have at the ready. Let the chopping begin. I feel better; I feel in control (at least of the garlic). I am Chef of my Domain.
