I actually baked a packet cake I had lying around in my pantry the other night and it made me realise how much I miss baking! The banana cake wasn't so bad either =)

For self care an early morning walk with the dog is great.

I put my phone in my top pocket and listen to a favouite pod cast. I prefer that to earbuds. This way i get to hear all the birds as i walk and i feel more connected during my walk.

Today for self-care I will do some baking this afternoon, and some stretching before I go to bed.
