A Smaller Scale Bake Day

Baking days have been trickier since we gained our little lemon drop. A lot has been trickier, in fact, and many things have been left by the wayside. However, things still find their way to doneness, and today, that meant some baking got done! Some. Definitely not all, lol! But it felt good to get some items ready for breakfasts and lunches around here! The trick may be more bake days with smaller hauls. If thats the case, so be it!

I had a helper for a little bit.

She helped with the first batch of oatmeal-to-go cups.

After that, I made some orange chocolate chip muffins. I made some a few days ago and they have been very well received! Almost too well received 😅 I need to make more quick! So I got on that today as well.

Wavy helped again with scooping them out of the trays, even though it was all still pretty warm. She had no fear tapping them gingerly to make sure she could manage the temperature.

And then I asked Dekker about helping me wrap it all up, and I gave him a very sincere, guilt-free out, but he opted to do it anyway. Which I loved.

Cher came over in the afternoon and I urged her to snag a few treats. She assured me they passed the test.

I feel like today was quite productive. I ended up making a second batch of oatmeal-to-go cups, because they come together so quick, and they’re also extra filling so they last a bit longer too.

The baking is never done, but I’m really enjoying it! On a day like today, where I get some batches of baking done, I feel more like myself.

So today is a win.

Can’t wait for my mixer to arriiiiiiive! 😍
