I bake when I'm stressed out. In the past, this wasn't a big problem. Baked 3 dozen cookies? No problem. I'll just bring them into my office and give them out to everyone.
Since 2020, though, I've been working from home. That means my family and I are my only (in person) "coworkers." Now, if I bake 3 dozen cookies, it means I'll be eating said cookies.
I'm more than happy to accept gifts of home baked cookies.
I actually found long distance running as a coping mechanism, after struggling for years with stress and emotional drainage.
It's been great for both mental and physical well being.
