Hazelnuts and choco cake

As soon as people know about my cooking passion they always ask me why I cook.

And always I really don't know what could be the answer. The exact answer I mean.

I could say becouse I live with an "always hungry man" and I need to cook.

I could say becouse since I was a little girl I sow my mother cook and bake for a lot of people (relatives and friends) for Holidays, Birthdays or special dinners.

I could say becouse I like to see people become happy in eating my food.

I could say becouse cooking relaxes me or just becouse it makes me happy.

Maybe are all of these together but please don't ask, it makes me nervous!! 

I cook and that's all.

Eat and Enjoy!!
