I love cooking, hiking, camping, eating good food

cooking makes me feel good, making a meal for my husband.  Cooking brings my heart out.  cooking takes a stressful day at melts it away. Hiking is where you can get away from everything that life throws at you. you don't have to think about anything except where you are. when you hike it is just you and the mountain, the feeling of accomplishment and the air. breathing fresh air and relaxing not having every day on your back. camping is my most relaxing time. cooking on an open fire, hunting and fishing for your food. gathering wood for your firepit. out in nature listening to the nature all the different noises. its a calming time. at night in the right spot looking up at the stars seeing different planets. its breath taking when a shooting star gos by. and when I go to a restaurant you expect good food but nobody realizes that you order what you want and hope it is good. well I like good food I will tell the restaurant how good the food is and the server. it all ties in together. you know it is good on the first bite. I love food and I believe if enough people tell how good a place is it will stay on the map. but then you have these places that just are okay so make a change. I like helping people to make a changes. I like put places like the best place to go. I like serving my husband.
