So maybe the weirdest part of today is that I'm one verse away from having completed writing a song about baking. A song about baking that includes Biblical, classic literature, and mythological creatures.
Inspiration comes from the strangest of places.
You may as well just cross stitch that little number on the largest wall in your home because it's totally true. I made "heart healthy" cookies for Valentine's Day. Basically no flour, no white sugar. Some brown sugar and honey, tons of oats (bye bye high cholesterol), peanut butter (natural endorphin booster-hellooooo happy days!), dark chocolate (because I know I've read somewhere that it's good for you), dried cranberries (it sounds better if you say that instead of Craisins...), and a touch of cinnamon (metabolism accelerator). Beauties. Made them into heart shapes. Took them to work.
The ladies loved them. I'm not sure about the fellas. Anyway, one of the guys I work with flat out said, "I could bake you under the table." Whaaaaaaat did you just say?
Best phrase I've heard in awhile. And it got all the creative juices flowing, so to speak. And now I'm one verse about Godzilla and King Kong away from having the world respect me as an artist. Not bad.
