That was me yesterday.

I tend to get that way when I am cooking and someone messes with me or my food.

I have a problem with people wanting to open my smoker and look at the food.

If you are there when I am checking on or basting things, fine.

You don't just walk over and open it up so you can see how it looks!!

This is how I am today though.

Cooking is over and my demons are gone.

There is something about cooking that helps me work through the problems of life.

Find what helps you do the same and use it.

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
