Hummmm...


“A mood is a relatively long lasting emotional state. Moods differ from simple emotions in that they are less specific, less intense, and less likely to be triggered by a particular stimulus or event.

(…) Mood also differs from temperament or personality traits which are even longer lasting. (…) Mood is an internal, subjective state, but it often can be inferred from posture and other behaviors.

(…)According to psychologist Robert Thayer, mood is a product of two dimensions: energy and tension. A person can be energetic or tired while also being tense or calm. According to Thayer, people feel best when they are in a calm-energy mood. They feel worse when in a tense-tired state. People often use food to regulate mood. Thayer identifies a fundamental food-mood connection, and advises against the reliance on food as a mood regulator.

(…) Thayer suggests walking as a means to enhanced happiness.”

E o que é que eu tenho a dizer sobre isto? Que a minha satisfação não vem só de comer mas sim de ver, cheirar e sentir as texturas, de observar e participar nas várias etapas de confecção da comida. Tudo o que tenha a ver com comida me inspira, até os utensílios de culinária, os pratos, os talheres, as formas dos bolos, os livros, os panos da loiça. Que cozinhar é uma acção maravilhosa e que partilhar uma refeição é um prazer.

Mas, claro que também sou feliz a andar...!
