What do you do when you’re stressed and worried? Typically, women spend a day at the salon or spa. Or buy gold coins online, new clothes, shoes, bags or gadgets. Others may do both. In the past, I do the latter and eat. And last year, I learned that my most dreaded household chore – ironing our clothes – is an effective de-stressor too. However, I’ve lost interest on ironing and found a new chore instead which is cooking. I find the entire process surprisingly calming. From going to the market to preparing my ingredients up to enjoying the fruit of my labor. It helps too that the wet market is quite near and offers a variety of fresh produce, fish and meat. Marketing and cooking, certainly are great ways to take my mind away from worries and forget about what’s causing the stress. These are indeed effective in transforming the negative vibes into positive and yummy ones.

Eating organic food these days has become a fad, especially when many of us realize that the food we usually eat, even though “fresh” contains chemicals and preservatives. It is unfortunate though, that organic foods are quite expensive. Thus, why not try growing one’s own organic garden?
What are the advantages of growing your own food? They contain no or lesser chemicals (pesticides, fertilizers, etc.). Thus, it is good not only for one’s health but also for the environment. Moreover, they are fresher, taste better and last longer.
The Internet is full of resources when it comes to growing a garden. One can even buy a composter online if he can’t find one at local shops. Purchasing gardening supplies and tools is pretty convenient too as these are already available in many supermarkets.
