Taking a moment to be “Grounded in My Roots” 🇵🇭

I spent the summer visiting home and relishing quality moments with my family. While there, I realized I didn’t have a cookie flavour that reflected a big part of who I am—my Filipino identity. Ube is a dessert flavour that has become more popular, but I wanted to add to that flavour profile. In Filipino cuisine, we love adding cheese to lots of desserts. Whether on top of cassava cake or ensaymada, cheese adds a creaminess and saltiness that completes the experience.

Grounded in My Roots was the product of all these reflections. If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s an ube cookie with a pandan cheesecake filling, and topped with cheddar cheese. Pandan is a plant that is used in many Southeast Asian cuisines. We use its fragrant leaves to extract this “grassy vanilla” flavour. It’s hard to explain, but once you know the smell, it just sticks with you 🥰

This is one of my favourite flavours we’ve ever created. If you’ve tried it already, we’d love to hear how the experience was for you! It might not be for everyone, but this one reminds me so much of home 💕

Reflection for you today: when was the last time you took the time to sit down and connect with your inner world? How does it look? Feel? There isn’t a need to intellectualise emotions or feelings such as anxiety and fear. Rest knowing acknowledging them is enough.

Now, when was the last time you checked in with your friends and family? The ones you see once a year, or twice or month, or the ones you haven’t seen in years? Make time and space to reach out and let them know you’re thinking about them.

Connection with ourselves and others is so powerful and uplifting within the human experience. It makes us feel a sense of belonging and togetherness.

Much love on this cloudy Tuesday 🌿✨

INTRODUCING OUR SPRING FLAVOURS:
Connect & Breathe ✨🌱🌧🌴🌞🌸🌿
* pre-order via DMs *

Connect:
🍵 Plant-based Matcha Miso Cookie with a Cocoa Butter Glaze (2 ounces only)
🍵 Has a rich matcha taste that’s balanced with the miso’s umami flavour. The cocoa butter coats the cookie, giving a delicate velvety layer.
🍵 As the season changes and we slowly come out of our winter caves, it asks you to reflect on ways you can (re)connect with yourself and nature in order to create a stronger bond.
🍵 Delicious with a cup of oat milk.
🍵 1 for $3, 3 for $7.5, 6 for $14

Breathe:
☕️ Earl Grey & Lavender Infused Dough with Milk & Dark Belgian Chocolate Chunks (5 ounces only)
☕️ Deep earl grey flavour with a sprinkle of lavender (so it doesn’t feel like a bouquet was shoved in your mouth). Milk & Dark chocolate add layers to the cookie’s decadence.
☕️ Earl grey & lavender have very strong scents on its own. This cookie invites you to sit down, breathe intentionally, and experience the moment for what it is. A passing moment.
☕️ Yummy with a cup of dark coffee or milky tea.
☕️ 1 for $5.5

Pick up is this Friday (March 18) from 1 pm to 4 pm in Kerrisdale! Please message if this doesn’t work for you 💛

We have a simple, but potentially difficult, reflection for you today. Which emotions (and feelings)—as shown in this wheel—have you not been holding space for? (The more specific, the better!) Remember: you don’t only have to feel one emotion all the time.

Having paradoxical emotions exist. Having contradicting emotions exist. Just because you’re grateful to be alive doesn’t mean you’re not distraught at what’s happening in the world. Just because you’re happy to support others doesn’t mean you’re mentally exhausted with all the difficult conversations you’ve been experiencing.

Perhaps today’s the day you hold space for them; no judgment, just seeing them and letting them take up space.

we’re a month into the Gregorian calendar and a couple days into the Lunar calendar but... we’re human and life (not to mention mental health struggles) get in the way. so here we are, a little late to posting this year. and thats okay. better late than never 🤷🏽‍♂️

it can also serve as a reminder to all of you folks who are trying hard to build healthier habits and being a “better, more energetic and motivated version of you”—

instead of trying to be a new you, a “better” you, is there any way you can reframe that to just... BEING you?

okay, Being Baked, we know you’re all about ~being~ but what does that even mean?

it means thinking, acting, speaking, loving, working as the person you are underneath all you’ve learned that isn’t sitting right with you. and you know that feeling exists. it’s there, tugging at you. but you don’t really know what it’s asking for.

it’s about unlearning, disconnecting—decolonizing yourself from what you’ve been told by society; what society says you are. it’s about questioning beliefs you’ve had for a long time. who put them there? whose voice does that belong to? is that mine? is that me?

if you have the privilege of choosing... do things differently. create a path others can follow.

be you. loudly. unapologetically.

we hope these resources continue to be of help to you as we (collectively) navigate through different relationships and the ups and downs of it all. conversations can get draining and emotional, and these are ways you can ground yourselves afterwards. please add anything that we haven’t touched on in the comments! we’re sure others can benefit from them too ☺️

take what you need, we’re cheering you on ❤️

We don’t realise the importance of boundaries until we find ourselves overwhelmed, stressed out, and bent over backwards doing things to please other people. The holidays can bring such occasions, leaving us mentally and emotionally exhausted.

So here are 9 ways for you to find something you can say when somebody wants to engage you in a conversation, or even an activity, that you’re not keen on.

It’s hard, we get it. But think about the alternative. Either you set this boundary and people will learn to respect it, or you give them what they want and mentally exhaust yourself. At the end of the day, it’s you who gets to decide 😊

ps. thanks to everyone who got cookies last week!! so grateful for all of your support to end off 2021 on a wonderful note ✨

The holiday season can be one the loveliest times of the year, but it can also be the most stressful and overwhelming 😩

So here are some tips when those times do come 🧘🏽 We know breath work is talked about a lot when it comes to stress and overwhelm, but that’s also because it’s what makes us present and exist. Deep, intentional breath. Remove yourself from the situation, de-stimulate, relax, and refocus.

It’s going to be okay. You’re going to be okay ❤️

⭐️ ALSO LAST CALL FOR ORDERS FOR 2021 ⭐️
We have a few 5-oz Dark Chocolate Cookies (plant-based) and Orange S’mores left! We only have the Orange S’mores available for the 2-oz. Send us a DM to pick up in Kerrisdale!
