I love to bake; it is so relaxing but stressful at the same time. Even though it’s a long process. During that time, I forget about major worries or troubles. Instead, I get to ponder about how I messed up the measurements or the poised concentration I need while it rises in the oven.  I always feel so proud of myself for making a pastry from scratch. Then at the end of it all, I get to sit down and enjoy my creation. That is, whether or not it is edible.
