- of combining ingredients to make a cake mix
- of watching the mix transform magically before your eyes in the heat of the oven
- of turning an ordinary cake into something special with icing and imagination in equal measure
- of a job well done
- of plunging a sharp knife into the heart of your creation to slice and serve
- of noticing that it looks pretty good inside
and finally,
- of happy faces, consuming, enjoying, licking lips and chasing crumbs.
Simple pleasures indeed.
Oh yes can't beat making and eating cake as the ideal simple pleasure! Nom nom :0
