The Beauty of Baking Every Other Weekend
My family loves DIY. The invitations, church decor, and flowers for my wedding were all hand-crafted by my mom and Aunt.
Regular, not holiday, baking started as a desire to try different recipes for a cookie table.
I found joy in baking: mixing, rolling and cutting relieving stress. It helps me to feel more creative. It gives my mom, husband, and I, a chance to bond as we work on the same project. It provides structure but also allows for experimenting.
It makes the recipients happy. It’s a smalla way to show love for others.
It’s creating simply for the sake of creating. Not so that people can judge the work I do- for better or for worse. It’s just the fun, hands-on activity I turn to.
