Me and my mom--I love baking with her! |
So if it was ummm 20 years ago and I was entering our Essay Contest to win free baking classes at Cook n Craft Academy....ok ok maybe a bit more than 20 years....hmmm hmmmm 35 years ago---this most likely is how my essay contest would go.
WHY I WANT TO WIN FREE BAKING CLASSES TO COOK N CRAFT ACADEMY'S AFTER SCHOOL BAKING CLUB
I love to bake. I love to eat what I bake. I love baking with my mom! However, I have a problem. My mom doesn't like me to bake by myself. Don't get me wrong. She's the best mom in the world, but she doesn't like when I bake because of the mess I leave in the kitchen sink...on the counter, on the table and on the floor. I can't argue her point, because as a 12 year old I do have issues with cleaning. So I have done the unthinkable. I sneak around late at night with my brother Joe and we hold baking contests. We rummage through all my parents cookbooks and pick a recipe that we know we have the ingredients to and then we both make our own version and see who's dish comes out better. I hold the lead on wins! Yes we still make a mess, but by the next morning most of those dishes get mixed in with the breakfast dishes so we most often get away with it. I know it's not right, and there are pangs of guilt but if I got to attend the after school baking club I could do my baking there and get it out of my system and not disobey my mom and sneak down at night. It would be a win win win--for me, my mom and for you!
And there you have it...the essay I most likely would have written if I was writing an essay to win free classes. I don't know if I would have been selected but I definately would have enjoyed applying. And I definately would have appreciated an after school baking club!
