- Whenever I get the urge for something sweet, gooey, chocolate or just
- plain decadent, I bake. Sometimes it's cheesecake, other times tollhouse
- cookies. But the main point is that I eat 1 or two pieces of cheesecake
- (over a couple of days) or a half dozen cookies, my husband will polish
- off his fair share (but he walks 12 miles every day, so burns it off
- faster than I do!) then I take the rest to work.
-
- Being female, I'm very much in a gender minority here, and the fellows I
- work with sometimes behave as though they've never seen sweets before!
- Makes me happy, because I've killed my craving, eliminated the temptation
- to over indulge, and created a productive sugar-rush high at work. It also
- gives me a self confidence boost, because I restrained myself from eating
- the whole four dozen cookies, and because of the compliments I get on my
- baking, which, fortunately or not, is my favourite hobby.
