Not to scare anyone, but it's now generally accepted that stress is a
major killer in our society. Every little addition to your daily load
of stress adds to the danger, so something which should be a pleasure
- such as cooking in your own home - should serve to relax you and
reduce the stresses you've acquired throughout the day.

Many of the problems that cause stress when cooking or entertaining
can be avoided with a little careful planning and organisation.
Cooking should be therapeutic, relaxing and above all enjoyable! I
have a blog that intends to give more information on the subject, as
well as eventually compile a list of good, relevant resources. Feel
free to check it out at http://dawnfood.blogspot.com/

Not every day can be completely stress-free, but removing the areas of
stress one by one can only improve your quality of life, and each
small success will spur you on to greater successes.
