Baking can be such an immersive activity that at times it feels like the entire world fades away—something I’ve personally experienced more times than I can count. There are moments when I’m so zoned into mixing ingredients, kneading dough, or decorating cakes, that I completely lose track of time or even forget someone nearby. It’s funny how baking grabs your full attention, making you oblivious to everything else, including your spouse or family members. I recall one particular morning when I was preparing a batch of my favorite cinnamon rolls. The smell of cinnamon and sugar filled the kitchen, and I was completely focused on perfecting every swirl. My husband came in saying hello, but my mind was so consumed that I barely noticed until he waved his hand in front of my face. That moment perfectly captures the hilarious side of baking obsession—sometimes we’re so passionate that we unintentionally forget the people around us. For those who love baking or are just beginning to explore it, this experience is quite common. It’s not just about the recipes but about the experience—the kneading, the waiting, and especially the joy of creating something from scratch. Embracing these lighthearted moments can add to the fun and joy of baking as a hobby or profession. Plus, it gives great stories to share about the funny intersection of baking passion and daily life.

Baking soda!
Baking soda works for sourdough discard recipes because sourdough contains the acids needed to create a reaction. Some notes: •A more acidic starter means a stronger reaction, but usually the flour in an acidic starter is more broken down leading to a less-fluffy, but more tender, result. •Too mu

Baking Tip! *from a BAKER*
Don’t combine yeast and salt because this can slow down or even halt the fermentation process, resulting in dough that doesn’t rise properly. To avoid this issue, mix the salt and flour together and bloom the yeast with sugar/honey in a liquid. #bakingtips101 #bakingtips #bakingfailure
