Do you cook? I mean relax yourself by cooking?

This is a movie that resonates with me.
My husband and I snuggled on the carpet and watched her, and we couldn't help kissing each other.
To put it cheesy, I'm that Julie, my husband is Eric, and
we all know too much about the little things I get into about "cooking".

I swear to God, when I threw my freshly made Pizza on the ground the other day,
I couldn't hold back my emotions and cried so much.
My husband was very puzzled and could only comfort me blindly.
So when I saw Julie smash that stuffed chicken to the ground in the movie,
God knows, how much I understand her frustration at that time.

I don't even know when I fell in love with cooking, and I
don't remember when I started getting compliments on my food from the people around me.
But when I was in the kitchen, I felt that the world was in my hands.
The first time I came to Germany, it was very difficult, and various emotions were often suppressed together.
But every time I start grocery shopping, washing, and chopping by myself, it's
always easy to focus, and I don't get tired at all standing in the kitchen for two hours.
I am always careful with the food in my hands.
I like to say to my impatient husband: patient, patient.
If you are good to your food, you will get unexpected results.
In the kitchen, being able to control everything and make amazing food
will temporarily withdraw from your realm any troubles or troubles you might encounter in the real world.

If I'm in a bad mood, if there's a strong sense of frustration in the moment, I'm going to cook.
It can be to mix the few ingredients in the refrigerator to create a new dish,
or to create a new dessert by yourself.
The kitchen is a place where one's imagination and creativity can be freely used,
but it is not widely criticized.
On the contrary, unexpected seasonings between foods will make people always taste the sweetness.

In fact, it has nothing to do with
the movie, it is about my contrived emotions and pots and pans.
Perhaps a sad thing, in less than 10 square feet of space, I can be satisfied.
