πΈ The Sourdough Apple Fritter Loaf - lamination
This is a long post with a lot to unpack π π
Lately I've been off my scheduling game. Ill be honest - I've been FORGETFUL - bad ! I'm not making excuses by any means, but sheesh football life ain't the life for me π« π both my boys raced motocross for almost 4 years and I NEVER felt this exhausted π
Practice 4 nights a week 6-8 (and we even skip monday !)
Games, well only weekday games and those are often over 45 minutes away !
Its been some late nights, ya bread girl is WHOOPED but im powering through and re evaluating whilst making big moves!
Being a home baker does not afford me the ability of driving into work and getting my job completed without little monster interruptions or home life interruptions.
I'm not complaining, I'm just being honest about how much is juggled.
Would I change it ?

I truly love baking bread. My friend just recently asked me if I'm still enjoying this. My answer was YES. I truly enjoy the chaotic calmness of the entire bread process.
I am not much a fan of making cookies and brownies and muffins. However, I can't just sell bread and keep doing this. So for those of you that love my sourdough sweets even though they're likely made with hate π and not by a sweets baker, I appreciate you so much because I'm not always proud of them but I do work just as hard and research so much for them as I do my loaves.
I've been seeing a whole lot of posts from cottage bakers saying that in order to build a large customer base, you need to put yourself on camera and on social media. π«·That ain't the life for me. I'm not a content creator, ill never try and be one, so best I can do is write these long as heck posts and hope y'all make it to the end π
