In an effort to not be that girl who only posts during the eleventh month, I thought I could keep a list of things I’d like to bake, which would hopefully lead to writing about them.

As a shy person who’s always felt more outgoing behind a screen, this satisfied a bit of the longing to interact with people, but from a safe distance. Continue reading →
