One positive about being inside so much is that it might encourage me to get into cooking. Baking and cooking can be a great thing to do with children at home but even if you’re cooking for one, it can be a very therapeutic activity. I asked some chef friends […]
I work from home most days (and have done for 12 years) but for those of us for whom this is not the norm, it can be tricky to know how to successfully work from home. Being positive and having some discipline are essential tools for a productive day so […]
