So if you know anything about me as a person (which you probably don’t because you do not know who is writing this article) then you know that I absolutely love baking. The truth is that I have always had a huge passion for baking and everything involved with it. How did my love for baking start? Well, to answer that question, we would have to travel back to the start of my life as a young buck in a rural town in the midwest. Most little kids like to do silly things like play with race cars or LEGOS or some other dumb toy like that; not me. I actually was way more mature than most kids my age, meaning that I needed something to keep my highly intellectual brain occupied while I looked for hobbies to put my massive brain to. The thing that seemed to really do it for me was baking, especially since baking was such an accessible hobby for me. The reason for this is that my mom is a huge baker and was always in the kitchen cooking up some sort of baked goods or something like that. One thing that I’ll say is that baking is not for everyone. Baking can be a real challenge if you do not know what you are doing. However, I thankfully grew up with the best teacher around. My mom was there to teach me all about baking.

There are tons of different things that you can bake, it really just depends on what you are feeling that day. As for my mother and I, we baked different types of cookies, cakes, pies, or pastries depending on the day and what we were feeling that day. It can also vary because of the time of year and because of certain holidays, so just keep that in mind if you ever decide to start baking. My love for baking definitely comes from my mother, especially after so many days spent helping her in the kitchen. My responsibilities in the kitchen were obviously not the same when I was growing up, since it is true that a little kid cannot do all the same things that an adult can do.

My mom would have me stir the mixing bowl or crack an egg here or there, and my responsibilities would get more complicated and bigger the older I got and proved myself a capable and competent co-pilot in the kitchen. One of my favorite parts about baking was picking out the ingredients at the store. Whenever my mom would pick me up from school we would head to the grocery store to pick up some ingredients for dinner and that sort of thing. On the occasions that we were going to bake something that evening, she would also pick up various ingredients for baking. My favorite part was picking out the candy boxes that we would use to make different types of cakes and cookies. My mom would let me pick out the candy boxes because she knew that it meant a lot to me.

Anyways, thanks for reading this article that I put a lot of work into. Honestly, if you want to know the real truth about me, I made this entire thing up and I really don’t care much for baking in the slightest.

Moving is probably the most stressful time in anybody’s life. Give or take a few random people that may disagree with me, I would bet that most people would rather sell one of their kidneys than have to move across the country. With that being said, there are certain things that you can do to make the moving process more tolerable. That’s right – believe it or not, it does not actually have to be such a terrible time. Now I know that people may be skeptical about some random guy on the internet like me on the internet writing about moving, but I promise you that I know what I am talking about. So whether you are moving across the country, to a new apartment or home, or just a few blocks down the road from where you currently live, I am hoping that some of these moving tips can be useful for you in the current moment. If you get through with reading this article and still feel like I have not added anything of value to your moving situation, feel free to leave me a negative review and a hurtful comment if you are so inclined. Your criticism actually helps me to be a better person and a better writer. So without further ado, here is my weekly blog about moving tips and tricks for anybody and everybody.

The first moving tip that I would like to talk about in this weeks’ blog is about packing. Now packing is arguably the most important part about moving, and it can really add to the overall stress levels that you may experience from day to day. It is no joke that packing can seriously be time consuming, especially if you have a lot of stuff lying around that you are responsible for putting into cardboard boxes and other storage units. One tip that I have for anyone who is going to start packing soon is to make a packing list.

You may think that you are capable of remembering everything in your house and when you want to pack it up, but believe me when I say that some things will slip through the cracks. By making a list of things that you are going to pack you can actually feel a lot less stressed since you will not have as many things on your mind all the time. You can make a list that organizes everything you are going to pack, the order you are going to pack it in, and where you are going to pack it. For example, you could list off your dishes and silverware to be packed by next Friday in the cardboard boxes labeled appropriately. This is one way to just make everything a lot easier as you go about your life.

Another tip that I have for you about moving is that you should always create some sort of moving budget. Most people are surprised when they find out how expensive and time consuming moving is. One thing that makes moving way easier is having a simple but strict budget that you can stick to. By creating a budget, you can be sure how much things are going to cost and know in advance what you are going to be spending. No more surprises! 

Ever since I was a young whipper snapper running around my neighborhood streets in the early 2000s, I have had a huge affinity and passion for baking. I guess that you could say it all started with the way my mom loved to bake as well. Ever since I was little, I could always find my mom baking up something absolutely scrumptious in the kitchen. First, I only liked baking because I could always eat the yummy treats that came from all the hard work of baking. After a while, however, I began to appreciate baking simply because of the process of getting all the ingredients together, measuring out the ingredients carefully, and being able to create something really delicious. The best part about baking is no doubt the fact that you can spend a lot of time with other people that you love. For me, baking has always been a great way for me to spend time with my mother. Like I mentioned above, my mom has always been really into baking, and oftentimes I would find her in the kitchen making various cakes, cookies, pies, pastries, and other sweet treats. Sometimes she would bake things in the evenings after school, and other times she would bake things in the early mornings and afternoons on the weekends. Either way, one thing was for certain; there was always something in the oven at my house that I could simply not wait to eat.

One of my favorite parts about baking was going to the store to pick out the certain ingredients that we would need for that day. The best time to go to the grocery store was after school, usually because my mom would agree to buy me an after school snack like a donut from the grocery store bakery. The grocery store bakery in my hometown has the best donuts. Anyways, when I went to the grocery store with my mom after school, we would look for specific ingredients that my mom would need to bake our next sweet treat. One thing that I really enjoyed about going to the grocery store to pick out ingredients is that my mom would let me pick out the candy boxes and type of sugar that we would be using. Especially when making things like cookies, my mom would do me the honor of letting me choose which candy boxes would be used in creating the recipe. This gave me a lot of joy because it would make me feel like I was contributing a lot to the baking process, and there is honestly not a better feeling than that right there.

With all that being said, I no longer bake in my free time now that I am more grown up. I think it could be said that a lot of the reason for this is that I simply do not have the time or energy to bake on my own anymore. During the weekdays, I usually find myself very busy with work and taking care of things around the house and completing my daily responsibilities. In addition to this, I usually have things going most weekends and therefore do not have time to bake on the weekends either. Either way, I will always have a special place in my heart for baking with my mother.

Moving is a stressful time for just about everyone in the world. Unfortunately, moving is one of those annoying things that everyone will have to face eventually. Because of this, I have seen a lot of people have to go through that troubling time of moving all on their own and not having a lot of help available to them from outside resources or something like that. It is truly saddening to see people go through this sort of thing. Luckily, there are people like me who exist that are willing to go onto the internet and start writing dumb articles like these. I happen to have a lot of experience when it comes to moving, especially when it comes to moving far distances all by yourself. I can think back to numerous times where I have had to move across the country all on my own, without a single person around to help me. Well, I am still here today so you know that the advice I have to give is extremely valuable. Since I have so much experience about moving, I have decided to write this article to hopefully give you a little bit of help for your own moving process. Let me know if this article was helpful for you or not!

The first tip that I have for you involves packing. Now – it is safe to say that packing is probably the most strenuous, stressful, and important part of moving. Packing is the time where things can go very wrong or very smoothly, depending on how skilled and prepared you are. That being said, I do have a few tips for you regarding packing. The first tip I have is that you should not be paying for cardboard boxes or any other type of storage to pack your things in.

Instead, my suggestion is to go around to various stores: grocery stores, supermarkets, hardware stores, and other similar places. Sometimes these stores have a plethora of cardboard boxes sitting around in the back that they will have to dispose of anyways. If you show up at the right time, you might just find yourself some free moving gear that you do not have to pay for. After all, boxes are definitely the best thing that you can pack your stuff into. Just be extra careful with those fragile items and make sure to use lots of packing materials to keep all your stuff safe and sound during the shipping process.

Another tip that I have for you is to hire a moving company if you are moving by yourself. Now, you may think that you are man enough to handle all of the moving on your own, which may be true; however, it just makes way more sense to hire a moving company if you can afford it. Hiring a moving company will take a lot of the stress of loading, driving, and unloading off of you, and you can usually get some pretty good quotes from various moving companies depending on where you live. Another tip about moving companies is to take pictures of your fragile items before and after moving – that way you have evidence in the event that the moving employees break any of your fragile things! Hope this is helpful for you.
