The caption for the above drawing went through a few variations. One version was, “When I cook, it’s to relieve stress. When Raph cooks, it causes it.” I didn’t like that caption for some reason. The one I finally settled on seems to flow better, perhaps, and is less judgmental on the woman’s part. She’s just stating a fact.
What do you do to relieve stress?
