      Hm? Never heard of Zen Cooking before, though it does sound rather intriguing. Will make a note to look it up at some point! Thanks Rana!

      By the way, it's so lovely seeing you back here posting again! Hoping all is going well for you and yours, dearest!!

      awesome - ideally everything should be zen, bringing our full attention and care to everything. power of presence i guess - it's way too easy to get lost in the mind and its inane chatter. I bet zen food tastes much better
      Check out ELADRIA ~ an epic, highly acclaimed fantasy/sci-fi/metaphysical novel!

      Oh my yes, absolutely!!

      What's interesting is that - there is the potential of that happening and that potential has always been there ... but it seems the silly 'ego' always manages to get in the way of reaching that full and wonderful potential. I suppose it is all part of the learning and growing process ... huh!?!
