When I do have time to be creative in the kitchen, it’s usually when I’m making dinner. And, dinner isn’t my favorite thing to make. Joe looked at me one night and said, “Honey, I know you’d rather be baking but you’ve got Nate to feed and we’ve got another one on the way. You’re a great cook. Just enjoy it.”
I’ve been working on that. And, I do enjoy it much more than I used to.
But, gosh, it doesn’t compare to the joy I get from whipping up dessert, or even a fresh loaf of bread.
