The benefits (or downfall, depending
on how you look at it) of being a baker, means that I can literally feed my
emotional eating needs when required.
Without engaging my inner Drama Llama, I can tell you that sometimes the truth hurts.
But what hurts more is fighting my truth. And, let me tell you, it also takes a huge amount of energy.
To fight the truth is to fight a
losing battle.
Feeling defeated over the weekend,
I embraced my baking skills and made these delicious cookies.

And you know what?
Life isn't so bad with a cookie and a cup of tea.
