A Skill I’m Trying to Learn

Alright, so the skill I’m really trying to learn these days is baking. Not just bread, but all of it. Pastries, cakes, pies. The whole works, you know? It’s a science and an art. Which is tricky for me.

I started with simple stuff. Like chocolate chip cookies. Even that was hard. Getting them chewy, not cakey. My first batch was a bit of a disaster. They spread out into one giant cookie. A tasty mess, though!

My biggest challenge is patience. And reading the recipe properly. I always miss a step or an ingredient. Like forgetting baking powder. Rookie mistake, right? The cake was so dense. A real doorstop.

But I’m gonna keep at it. I really wanna master a perfect, flaky pie crust. That’s the dream. Just gotta practice. And maybe invest in an oven thermometor. I hear that’s key. Even the failures taste pretty good, so it’s a win really.
