Everyone knows i’ve made cookie cakes in the past, but i’ve never actually been able to make just regular cookies… ever. Does that make sense? I took it as a sign that i’m not supposed to have sweets because i don’t like cake and can make that but i do love cookies and could never make them. But let that be a reminder that even bakers have things they can’t bake that you can😉
A couple weeks ago i did manage to make chocolate oatmeal cookies. But then i got the request for regular and what better time to try a new recipe than when it’s for a wedding and you have no time for a mess up? Knowing me, i took the challenge!
To some people, that might seem like such a small, ordinary thing. But for me, it’s a reminder of how far I’ve come.
Today, I stood in the kitchen doing whats always been the impossible, followed a recipe, mixed the dough, baked the cookies, and smiled when they came out just right. 🍪✨
It may just be a batch of chocolate chip cookies, but to me, it represents progress.
We don’t always recognize our growth because we’re waiting for the big milestones. But sometimes growth looks like getting out of bed, making dinner, taking a shower, laughing again, or baking a batch of cookies.
So today, I’m celebrating this little victory — because small victories are still victories, and sometimes they’re the ones that mean the most. ❤️
Here’s to celebrating the little things, being proud of ourselves, and remembering that progress is progress, no matter how small. 🍪🤎✨
Thanks for reading my ridiculous post about cookies, i also want to acknowledge that i stood infront of 100 cookies while pregnant and only ate one… Thanks for listening 🥰🤰🏼
