Today I want to talk about cooking, the kitchen, food and the “chores” commonly associated with the female gender.

Since ancient times, the kitchen has been considered a sacred place where food is cooked and family gathers. It is a shared space. It was a place where yelling, cursing and trash were prohibited.

Today, many of us have forgotten about this concept. My grandparents used to always keep their kitchen clean and fresh. It always smelled so good my entire family still holds fond memories of our grandma’s cozy kitchen and the aromas of cake and food that comes with it. People didn’t live in a constantly rushed manner like we do now. They lived good, healthier, happier lives. Remember, happiness and freedom are not reliant on money or wealth.

That being said I want to get back in the kitchen. So in order to achieve this goal, or at least get started towards my goal, my first step was rediscovering the history and soul of the kitchen. I have to rediscover the importance of keeping it clean, the memories and nostalgia that comes with it. Cooking is an important part of keeping your husband and family satisfied. Trust me, it sounds ridiculous, but it’s a serious issue that modern society is facing. It is very important for women to cook for their husbands and children. Food that is made by woman carry huge power. Women’s cooking can increase her health, help her husband’s wealth, and make her closer with her children.

Keep your kitchen light and keep your kitchen clean.

Every time you cook, be sure to wash your hands first. You don’t want any negative energy going into the food you are making. And remember to always keep in mind that whatever you are doing in the kitchen, it is helping every aspect of your family life.

If someone asks me why in the modern era, why relationships fall through more-so than ever, the standard response would be priorities. While I agree with that statement I also attribute this change to the fact that women have forgotten their role in families. Now, I give you an alternative: If you want a full life that is happy, free and interesting, try cooking for your family.
