These days, when we all are #quarantined, and there is not much to do, it’s very easy for the anxiety to build up. There are uncertain moments where we feel helpless, and sedentary actions during self-quarantine can have negative effects on the health, well-being and quality of life of individuals. So keeping yourself busy in something or the other is important. This is not the time to panic, we have to take good care of ourself and our loved ones, be alert and spend some quality time with our families. Also be positive, and remain calm. I was thinking of baking since the day two of the lockdown, but was not getting time due to my busy schedule at home and also due to the fear of ending up with the basic ingredients stock. But finally I thought to give it a try with some basic recipes. So here I am with an easy Recipe for Eggless whole Wheat Vanilla Cake.
