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!!
