Baking, My Form of Meditation


Baking and cooking are forms of meditation to me. I am so focused on creating my dish, ensuring that all elements are in harmony with another, that all stresses that may have bubbled through the day dissipate. I am in a tranquil zone.

I baked my BIL (brother-in-law) a cake for his birthday. I need to take a cake decorating class.. at least it was fun!

I love you how you tried with the blue M&M's and green frosting. Cake decorating is harder than it looks! I bet it tasted fantastic though!

Can you make the boyfriend a birthday cake for me? I seemed to have been demoted to just the lasagna maker....

rock on! i totally agree that baking (esp. cookies) are like meditation.

it's a good decorating job, considering you don't decorate cakes for a living. you can actually READ Happy B-Day. Consider that an accomplishment.

ZONKERS, refound my blog (THIS blog) from 2005

Wow, it's cringe worthy in all of its honest glory.  I am in the middle of re-reading almost 500 posts.  It's awesome to relive most...
