baking.
hello peeps!
Today, Emir going to share different kind of post. Asyik sharing about managing financial lifestyle sahaja kan, today I nak share about my personal lifestyle. It’s a short post sahaja I want to share what baking means to me. How insiginificant or how profound, Emir encourage you to share ok!
As someone yang kenal I, they know that I am passionate baker and cook. I can cook but I’m more towards baking. Kenapa?
For me kan, act of baking is a form of my self expression. I create what I want, and from there depends magnificent atau tidak my baked good looks like.
Besides being an obvious means to an end (a baked good), the act of baking is a form of my self expression. I create what I want to create, however little or magnificent that baked good may be.
Dulu, when I worked 9-5 as an engineer, balik rumah dan baking something (even from Pillsbury box mix) sangat membantu untuk I relax dan unwind. I just rasa macam this is so me. Dalam environment kerja dahulu where I tak boleh channel my creativity, baking really kept me rasa content and fulfilled and as well rasa energised.
And not to forget, it’s like double awesome of awesomeness - baking makes me happy and baked cakes or dessert really can make everyone feel happy. Spreading joy is immensely powerful.
Up until today, I was able to make this passion as one of my stress reliever. I have been baking since 15 years old. 18 years later, baking still provides the same amount of joy and stress reliever. But then another part of baking is it brings out of me organisational skills, patience, cleanliness and meticulous. I in control of the outcome of my baking. And with that, baking is something I’m really grateful to be able to do it.
Again peeps for me, it is not just about baking chocolate chips cookies (my favourite), it’s about the joy that come with it. For me, baking is similar to my other stress reliever such as running, workout at the gym or travelling. But in a creative ways - and also makes my tummy happy. It is amazing that how a hobby can be form of therapy for me.
Talk to you soon, hope you love my writing today.
Love,
EMIR xx
