BECAUSE SOMETIMES YOU JUST GOTTA BAKE
When I need to clear my head I like to make things. Sometimes it's baking. Even though there is still the normal stuff going on...kids playing, sometimes crying, whatever is happening...I just have those days where I have the need to make something. To break away from the norm, even for an hour or two. It's good for my heart. It's good for my soul. I should probably do it more often, but some is better than none. Usually my kids want to join or hang out to see what I'm doing, which is fine by me. It's just good for me to turn my focus on something else for a bit. It's like it recharges my brain and then I can step back into the other stuff again. And everybody loves the end result when it's baking because we all get to eat it up!
This was my Saturday because I just needed to step away for a minute and regain some focus and peace. It's zucchini bread, which I usually make into a loaf but decided to make it round this time just to do it different. My mom used to make cornbread round like this a lot and it sort reminded me of that. The girls (minus one little that was sick) all "oh"ed and "ah"ed over it when it was done. They get so excited about food and baking. It's really pretty funny. I'm so glad they are pretty into the stuff that I make.
