The Routine Of A Virtuous Woman To Inspire Your Own

Unpopular Baking Opinions

-"You have to be careful, baking is an exact science" I get that baking is literally chemical reactions, but unless you're a professional who's trying to get the exact same result every time it's not that big a deal. The current conditions in your house will influence your results, so you could do everything the exact same way every single time and get a slightly different result. Your house is not a laboratory (unless it is lol). *I do spoon my flour into my measuring cup and definitely believe this is crucial. Some technique is still required with baking, and there are still wrong ways to do things.

-"You have to weight everything with sourdough so you have the right ratios" This kinda goes with the last. Baking is older than modern science. The first people making sourdough didn't have kitchen scales, it's not that serious. Actually when I tried to switch to weighing with my established starter to make sure I had the right ratios, it killed my starter because there wasn't enough flour to feed the yeast 😅 I went back to just making sure the texture is right.

-"You can never have too many chocolate chips" I often add less chocolate chips than recipes ask for 😅 if it's only asking for a half cup or less I might follow it, but even though I love chocolate I don't love a ton of chocolate chips in things.

This is just what I thought of off the top of my head. Baking is a fun hobby! Everyone has their own opinions on things and will do things a little differently. If what you're doing is working for you then keep doing it! I'm not saying my way is the right way, these are just personal opinions. 🥰🩷

The talk I gave tonight was primarily about how babies, as well as young children, experience hyperconsciousness, something that is often considered one of the main reasons why children at these stages are ‘difficult’ to handle.

Kids man, they encompass some of the most phenomenal thought processes and it is all driven by the fact that this whole world is completely new to them. If you want to see abstract ideas constructed in a matter of seconds, talk to a child. Their grasp is unbelievable.

Even if you feel that children whine, cry, and scream too much… in considering how they’re in a world they had no prior concept of, and are subject to an uncontrollable amount of stimuli every waking moment…. I still believe they’re handling it all fairly well.

This conference made me realize how much of a passion I have for destigmatizing childhood behaviors. There’s a sort of ‘Ahh..’ moment that people come to when they see that children actually have reasons for everything they do, that they shouldn’t be viewed as underdeveloped ‘functioning’ adults but should instead be recognized as humans in a separate yet equally important stage of life.

I’ve also been doing some work in researching and writing about children as an oppressed class, I’m finding ways to incorporate my previous sentiments into that.
