Thank you so very much for having a look over my posts @eaglespirit. Cooking is part of my therapy as I enjoy it that's why I often play in the kitchen making weird concoctions! Life has dealt some heavy blows my way, as it does with many, but I also see some as lessons to be learnt and hopefully help someone else one day having walked that road! Having rose tinted glasses helps but sometimes it's quite a shock to realise life is not always rosy. However, you are a wise lady and will start smiling within soon as you're working on healing from within... which really is the only path to true healing!
Thank you for what you're doing to help those you come into contact with!
