One-upping this. Learning to make bread even before the pandemic hit made me become regarded as a demi-god by anyone that had the opportunity to taste my sourdough or learn from me to make even just scones.

They're baked greats

Agreed. The year my sister lost her job, she made me a basket of gingerbread for Christmas. I enjoyed that so much more than anything she spent money on.

I still ask for gingerbread for Christmas, but now it's mostly because she gets grumpy about having to bake and it's funny.

yeah, my mind went to food - cook or bake something special 😄
