As I grew up, being active in the kitchen would be the one place I felt safe and at home, playing with ingredients as extensions of my personality and powering my stability, creativity and appetite for life. Here I could feel worries and confusion slip away as I let a good sauce and chopping zesty ingredients engage my mind, body and spirit on a joint task.
