optimistic strawberries with honey in cream.
I’m optimistic - it’s hopeful, positive, and happy. It feels like I can handle anything (even when things get tough). It’s a sweet place to be, so while I’m here I think I’ll bake.
I'm feeling...
something that’s *happiness* in a bowl,
something that’s a delight to make,
something with a cool and creamy texture,
something with a naturally sweet taste...
TLDR:
  • I’m optimistic
  • I’ll bake
  • Strawberries with Honey in Cream
  • Sweet, Cool, Creamy
  • Happy
This dessert extends the optimism all the way from my heart to my toes - it makes me happy.

Emotional Baking
Baking can be a lot of things – it can be distracting but simple, it can be movement with focus, it can be whatever you need when you need it. Choose a recipe to fit the mood and it becomes a useful tool as well – baking to quiet the mind, to connect with your emotions, or simply baking to feel emotional. Just think of the feelings you get and the emotions you experience when baking your favourite dessert…. excitement, relief, fulfillment, joy, accomplishment.
