My Baking Addiction

I have a problem.

It’s an addiction.

I know there are worse things to not be able to stop doing, but this is serious. I can’t stop.

As I sit in front of my laptop at one in the morning, what do I want to do? Bake granola. Why?!?

I don’t know!!!!!!!!!!

I am obviously much happier if my baked goods turn out well, but just getting in the kitchen, mixing together the ingredients, and tasting the results just sounds so appealing. All the time.

I definitly have a sweet tooth, but this is almost too extreme. Let me explain my cycle of baking related emotions, and tell me there not almost identical to a cycle described at an AA meeting.

1. Feel the need to do it.

2. Know you shouldn’t, but do it anyway.

3. Revel in the results.

4. Over do it.

5. Feel lousy and sick to your stomach afterwards.

6. Repeat.

That story could’ve described any addict, right?

I’m sorry I’m bombaring you with my sad baking needs, but I needed to write it down before I realized how idiotic baking granola at one in the morning is.

Dear Bake-aholics Anonymous,

I need an intervention.

Enjoy (baking)!
