People are so busy these days that many people have no time to cook��This becomes a problem, because most families love home cooking!The food tastes good and warm, and a family meal brings everyone together��In some families, meals are often the only times everyone sees one another at the same time��
Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love��A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child¨s sweet tooth��She or he is sending a message��The message says,^I care about you enough to spend an hour making cookies that you will eat up in 15 minutes if I let you�� ̄
There is also something about the smell of home cooking��The smell of home cooking pleases people of all ages��It makes most of us feel good and loved��even if we are the ones doing the cooking!Next time you smell a cake making, stop for a moment and pay attention to your mood��
