Give A Hand: Let Us All Help

Just last month, Bohol was greatly affected by a 7.2 magnitude earthquake destroying historical churches, and also roads and livelihood for some of our countrymen.

But when you think we had enough, before last week ended, our country faced another disaster. We were hit by one of the strongest typhoons mankind had ever seen - Haiyan (Yolanda as locally known). Haiyan was said to have hit a Category 5 level, simply because it is already the worst Category level that could be given to a typhoon. Roads are impassable, electricity are down, and worst part is that hundreds of our fellow Filipinos in the Visayas region had passed or is greatly injured.

They are in NEED OF OUR HELP, and I know we can ALL help one way or another. So let us do our fair share, and reach out.

Read: Baking as a Happy Pill

Just moments ago, I came across this article in Yahoo! talking about how baking helps people who are going through a rough time, and I just could  not resist myself from sharing. This is just a good simple read.

The Independent in the UK reports that baking could emerge "as a form of pill-less Prozac," at least according to John Whaite, last year's winner of the hit UK television series "The Great British Bake Off." In a report issued Monday for Real Bread Campaign, a nonprofit organization promoting artisan baking, Whaite calls for more people "suffering from mental health issues, or who are simply going through a tough time, to get the chance to try their hand at baking real bread to see how it could help them." - an excerpt from the article "Can Baking Make You Happy".
