I love to bake

I learned from my Mom

Baking is something we both love

Searching the internet for a new recipe

Setting aside baking time

New recipes are a chance to learn

There is so much to learn

There is no one way to bake

Or a perfect time

I have a different strategy than my mom

I have preferences in recipe

Ones that I love

It’s sharing with others that I love

I like taking the time to learn

And find a friend’s favorite recipe

Showing I care through what I bake

A go to gift for my mom

It means a lot when you take the time

I wish I could bake all the time

It’s something I really love

A love that I share with my mom

And holds experiences to learn

And also helpful, being able to bake

Being able to find a good recipe

It’s fun to look for a great recipe

One that doesn’t take a lot of time

And is easy to bake

A recipe that I will come to love

One that I can perfect as I learn

And share with my mom

The treat is decorated by my mom

After I bake the recipe

I don’t like decorating but I will learn

A way that doesn’t take a lot of time

Decorating is the only part I don’t love

I only really like to bake

You don’t have to be an expert to bake

You only need to have a love

And you will get better with time
