What Covid 19 Taught Me?

The Pandemic struck us last year. To be specific, it was March 2020 when the deadly virus changed how we all live our lives. At first, we all thought it will only last for a month... no, may be 2 months. But in actuality, the pandemic brought by Corona Virus has been over a year and still counting, a lot are still coping and trying to correct what the killer virus changed. Nobody was spared, really! Young, mid-age and elderly, we all are possible victims of the dreaded illness. We all go scared and fidgety!


Instead, I wan't to focus on what I can control and handle. Sure, I was extra careful. But I wanted to be productive at home too, while we are stuck in the four corners of our houses. 

Cooking has been always part of my life. Since a youngster, I have been exposed to a household who enjoys eating and cooking. So, this is what I have been busy with the last 1 year when the Pandemic was busy rampaging the Metro.

I started selling online food, like most people at home, last April 2020 and so far, food orders online has been constant and ongoing. At first, it was from friends and relatives. Then the goodness of Yaya Homemade Food was born and more demands from the market kick in. Who am I to say no?1 LOL

In life, we can choose to focus on the bad and negative or we can think pass through those and focus your energy on the good and productive side of life. 

Be safe everyone!
