Therapeutic aspect
Eva Mendes confessed to love doing the dishes, even ensuring that it is therapeutic for her.
“Life is so chaotic.

And to add: “It really goes further than simple cleaning.
It really gives me clarity in my ideas.
A clean sink equals a clear mind to me.”
The actress, who grew up in a modest family, and in a “very small apartment”, in southern California, confided that she had to do household chores all the more during her youth.
The one who has now founded a family with her companion, the star actor of Lala Land, can therefore count on the latter to get behind the stove.

"I'm proud of it," he said.

Even today, I am the only man in the house.
Women are better than us and they make me better.”
