I’ve recently come to the conclusion that when I am feeling a bit depressed, my go to comfort activity is baking. While staying in one’s pajamas and reading a book are also at the top of my list, I apparently go into overdrive bakers mode, as well.
Over the past week I have churned out some brownies, whoopie pies, a loaf of beer bread and a yellow cake. That is a lot of baking my friend. Out of all the things created, what remains is the loaf of beer bread and yellow cake since they were popped in the oven last night during the President’s address to the joint session of Congress.
The brownies went down with some ice cream and a friend. The whoopie pies went to an oscar party. I intend to make the loaf of bread last as long as possible and use it for sandwiches. The cake, well the cake might not last very long.
