Cooking is not just about creating a meal that will fill one's tummy, but about enjoying the process and creating happy memories. Some consider cooking to be as therapeutic as gardening or Yoga. Memories are often triggered by the smell of one's favourite meal, but these needn't just be for the ones who are eating but also for the one who is preparing the meal. Don't look at cooking as a task. Look it as a fun activity that you can do by yourself or with someone special. Here's how to have fun while cooking at home.

Put on your favourite music

One of the things that people find difficult to do while cooking, specially if you are new to it is to stay in the kitchen the whole time while preparing it. One great way to get past this is to put on some music and get into the mood. Putting on your favourite music or song while doing something that looks like a task makes it look easier. Listening to music you like will make you enjoy cooking more or even make you like it even if you don't.

Pour yourself your favourite drink

While getting drunk while cooking is not the way to go as you may just burn down your kitchen, pouring yourself just one glass of your favourite drink and sipping it slowly while cooking definitely makes the process more fun. Be it a glass of wine, a bit of whiskey with ice or even a healthy glass of lemonade on a hot summer's day, a cool drink at hand will help you work in a hot kitchen better. 

Get new kitchen tools

Another simple thing that can make cooking more fun is buying a few new kitchen tools. Be it a funky pair of scissors to chop veggies like this one designed by ICOOL, or a new set of knives, a practical new kitchen tool will give you the excitement of using something new in the kitchen while still be friendly on your pocket.

Take photos of cooking

Cooking and eating is no more just a personal experience. People love to share what they cook and eat nowadays. So take pics while cooking or even of the finished meal like here and post them on social networking websites or your blog to make cooking more fun for you. This way you will not just get a great meal but may just end up becoming an amateur food photographer.

Clean while cooking

Nobody likes a messy kitchen and a cluttered and unclean kitchen just makes the cooking process more stressful. So not just after you are done with your meal, but while cooking it itself keep cleaning. This way everything will be neat and organised, cooking the meal will become easier and afterwards you will not have to struggle with cleaning up a huge mess.

Give every meal a theme

Lastly make your meals more personal and interesting by giving each one a theme. It can be a cuisine, a colour or even a style but preparing and presenting every meal with a theme will make not just cooking it, but even eating it more fun. So be it Italian or Chinese, a rustic single pot meal or a modern Japanese meal or even an orange colour meal like this one here, choose a theme and enjoy executing it with flair.
