carefree honey dipped strawberries in toasted coconut and oats.

I feel carefree, weightless – it’s a sudden, unexpected feeling that’s always delightful! Delightfully sweet. Hmmm, that sounds perfect right now. I think I’ll *bake*.

I'm feeling...

something that *is* the mood,

something that prolongs the mood,

something that can be thrown together easily,

something that’s naturally sweet, perfectly toasted and just a little tart...

TLDR:

I'm carefree
I'll bake
Honey Dipped Strawberries in Toasted Coconut and Oats

Feel. Bake. Better.

It’s not just about baking something to get you through the day.

It’s not about eating the whole tray to feel better.

It’s about getting lost in the process.

It’s about enjoying every moment.

It’s about sharing it with people that support and care about you.

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.
