November 15, 20178 yr I know it's sad but this will make his pressure lower and didn't most skater pass competitons during Olympic season? Can we back to cooking? I need something to surpass the stress @yaminoqueen a place for someone like us?
November 15, 20178 yr @bv vnlao Like who? Like us who stress-eat? I can't cook to save my life so I can't stress-bake to de-stress (and those are too many stress words in 1 sentence )

November 29, 20178 yr Well I'm not baking anything, but tomorrow I'll go to my second all you can eat sushi of the week and it feels like early Christmas. I didn't do anything to deserve all this delicious food.
December 2, 20178 yr I have just taken up running (my speed is more like jogging) and it really feels so good. It's also nice how people respond in the park I run at. All smiling and hello's, and this is in a city where people are experts at ignoring each other. Definitely recommended.
December 2, 20178 yr Author I wish I was one of those people who found useful things stress-busting. Like running or cleaning. Instead I bake things that are yummy but definitely not good for us, and I drink wine and beer. *sigh* Thought prompted by long overdue cleaning of kitchen cupboards that resulted in three giant bags of long expired things to throw away.

Wine is not always a bad thing And taking a walk is really good too, especially in a park or forest.

The only park close by has more people than shopping malls because, well, it's the only park close by. Walking in the city is so not fun. I'll get all my walking in during the holidays when I'm away from the city. And eat a lot of cake. Holiday baking. Japanese Nationals stressbusting.
December 5, 20178 yr I hate walking in the city - I've been doing a lot of it lately since my car died and walking anywhere that's less than a 45 minute walk is easier than public transport. Fumes from traffic, dog mess on pavements, big puddles from drains clogged with leaves - hate it. Just need a few free weekends to pursue a second hand car that ticks enough boxes to persuade me to disgorge the money.

Nobody has any consideration for bicycles or the poor chumps on them. I decided the exercise wasn't enough to compensate for the toll it took on my heart so I packed it in. I mean I was just wheeling it along the side of the road in the end because it was the only safe thing to do.
December 5, 20178 yr You're braver than I am - just watching cyclists here terrifies me. No way I'd go out in all that traffic!

I stuck to inner roads and I still regretted it pretty quickly. I was prompted by memories of cycling along as a teen, but then I didn't grow up in the city, that was a big reason why I liked the whole experience.
January 13, 20188 yr About cooking. *While video call with my sister* Sis: Wait, wait, what is it, behind you? Is it a flower pot? Did you finally planted something? I can't believe it! Hurry and tell me, what flower is it? Me: No, it isn't a flower, I've planted some rosemaries. You know, it's expensive to by a fresh rosemary, but it's so good for roasting chicken! Sis: You know, your cooking addiction is really crazy. Me: It's not an addiction, it's a hobby and a stress buster. BTW, I've finally managed to make a proper cheesecake yesterday... Well, ok, it's an addiction. But not the worst, isn't it? Sis: *sigh*
February 9, 20188 yr Hokkaido bread is great! And the recipe is simple (yes, I'm already nervous because of the Olympics and this is my stress cooking again).

Cannot see the image (is it an image of the bread you baked?) But the images I found on Google look so delicious and making a dough must be relaxing and fun.
