There is nothing like icing straight from the bowl! Licking the brownie covered spoon is heaven. Cookie dough made with a new fresh bag of chocolate chips makes my mouth happy.
It is difficult to remember what makes us happy and laugh when in the middle of caregiving and the potential crisis that comes with it. It is easy to draw into oneself and live life by rote when everything has potential for pain and sorrow. It is also easy to withdraw from family and friends.
Buy a roll of cookie dough next time you are at the store. Call a friend. Share that dough with someone who listens, laughs with you, knows you. Embrace them. Include them in your schedule and let them know what you need. Let them hug you and share the future, whatever it might be.
