My name is Emily Crider, and if you are looking for a way to relax in the kitchen, stress-free, simple recipes, and a whole lot of deliciousness – you are in the right place.
I’ve experienced firsthand how overwhelming it can be when baking feels complicated, expensive, or time-consuming, but it doesn’t have to!
That’s why I’m not just posting the same recipes as everyone else, but instead providing you with tips, tricks, and guidance to help you make delicious and easy treats right in your very own kitchen.
I also believe:
– There’s nothing wrong with using a boxed mix from the store.
– Baking can be a relaxing activity.
– It’s okay to make mistakes, as they might lead to something delicious.
– You can have your cake and eat it too!
I always found being in the kitchen and baking so soothing and relaxing, and it wasn’t until I was diagnosed with autism at the age of 19, that I fully understood why. When I’m stressed out or need an escape, I bake. When I want to show someone that I care or to find a way to cheer up family or friends, I bake.
Baking is predictable. You always know if you mix the right ratio of eggs, butter, sugar, and flour, it will produce a cake, or cookies, or muffins. Every. Single. Time.
I get overwhelmed very easily, especially by recipes with way too many steps, too many ingredients, or just too complicated to read and understand. I know other people did too, and that’s why they would turn to the supermarkets for their dessert fix.
I wanted to fix this and show people that baking doesn’t have to be this way. Baking can be simple, quick, and fun.
