I really enjoy baking, but I don’t do it very often for various reasons such as I can’t seem to bake without making a total mess and the fact that ovens are my mortal nemesis (Sensitive to heat) and I feel bad asking people to help with that.

Of course, it wasn’t enough that I had to bake cookies for work–if I’m baking my family also wants some so I had to make a batch for work without nuts and a batch for home with nuts. Everyone is pretty happy so now it’s just hoping my job doesn’t hate them.
My father recently surprised me with a new mixer so it took a bit to get used to it.
It’s definitely better though–normally when we make these, the dough is practically trying to climb out of the bowl so it was nice to not have that problem.
All finished! (Well, two of the batches anyway)
