Why I Make Cheeseburgers When Life Sucks

Some days, the world feels like it’s running on low battery. Deadlines, drama, existential dread—you know the drill. That’s when I hit the kitchen and wage war against my mood with a homemade cheeseburger and fries. No, it’s not some gourmet masterpiece. The cheese melts a little unevenly, the fries are more rustic than Instagram-worthy, but biting into that burger? Instant serotonin boost. There’s something healing about building your own comfort food from scratch. It’s like telling the universe, “I can’t fix everything, but I can make this taste amazing.” Maybe it’s not about the food at all. Maybe it’s about taking control, even if it’s just over a pile of potatoes and a slab of beef. If you’re spiraling, I highly recommend a cheeseburger intervention. Bonus points if you eat it with your hands and don’t care about the mess. Sometimes, that’s enough to make the world suck a little less. #homemadefood #cheeseburger #comfortfood #Food #Foodie
