BAKE ALL THE THINGS!

Let's talk about Hyperbole and a Half - you are already reading this blog, yes?  If not, you should be.  Allie's blog is funny and heart-full, and gives some of the best descriptions of dealing with anxiety and depression I've ever read. She posts  infrequently, but when she does, it is worth the wait.

One of her most popular posts was This Is Why I'll Never Be an AdultIt's about the how quickly an attempt to do all the adult things in life (return emails! go to the bank! grocery shopping! clean ALL the things!) can disintegrate into surfing the internet at 3 am.  I loved this post three years ago when it was first written, and I appear to have made very little progress towards being an adult since then, because I relate to it just as much now as I did then.  Actually, pretty much the entire internet loved this post, and "X all the Y" became an internet meme.

When I bought my thought bubble cookie cutter from a delightful 3D printer (!) Etsy store, I knew it was destined for a BAKE ALL THE THINGS! cookie interpretation of Why I'll Never Be an Adult.







And who needs to be an adult when you can be the God of Cake?




Um, adults stay up until 4 am decorating cookies, RIGHT?
