Just catching up 😁

Day One: Story

Two years ago I was working 9am-5pm in an office but found my anxiety and depression were at an all time high because all I seemed to do was work, come home to the worst of my kids (grumpy bedtime!) and by the time the weekend came around, I was too tired to do anything fun.

Something had to change, so I wrote a list of the things I loved to do (#lovelists 🤣) Baking kept rearing its head – I’ve always loved cooking and baking. They’ve always been my escape.
The opportunity to open my own One Mile Bakery here in Exeter came and I grabbed it with both hands. I haven’t looked back since – weekly deliveries, hosting small fun baking classes in my home and still being able to do the school run ✔

I'd previously made bread at home using a machine but was never satisfied with the result so the "Introduction to Breadmaking" seemed a good place to start!  The teacher (Boudicca) explained things clearly but kept the mood of the course upbeat and fun... I like the 'zero waste' and 'reducing food miles' ethos of this company. I'm planning to bake bread for my family as a result of attending this so it really was worthwhile.
