New Beginnings Chapter 7

by

When I was little I liked to bake and help my mom in the kitchen. Now, I like to bake cookies, brownies, cakes, muffins, and bread loaves. I bake different flavors like chocolate, banana nut, pumpkin, lemon, pecan, chocolate chip, red velvet, snickerdoodle, or oatmeal. I like to bake as gifts during the holidays or special occasions. It is easier now that I have practice and have years of experience. This year is the first time I created a baking menu. I am starting to sell items and create my own business.

I feel calm when I bake. Baking is a coping skill that relaxes me. When I feel upset, then I start to bake some deserts to help me feel better. When I bake things for other people it makes me feel happy. I am happy because I am doing something nice for them.
