Eddie’s Energy Bars Blog

I’m baking like a mad man this next week for my upcoming store demo at Sweet Clover Market. In case you forgot to write down the details, it’s Thursday, June 14th from 11:30-2ish. Please come and enjoy the time, as well as sample all of our wonderful energy bars. Hope to see you there!

Well, in the midst of baking these past few days, I have noticed how cluttered our home bakery has gotten. It is full of knick-knacks that do not aid in the energy bar making process. These items, are then carried away to another room in our house, only to make someone angry a couple of days later, when they are looking for that item. It is incredible how much our bakery has lost its zen, if it even had any to begin with. Only so many homemade energy bars can be produced from our kitchen, and if we go over that “zen” limit, it automatically turns into chaos, at least for me.

This chaos has jumped from room to room in our house, and I have started to notice how much more simplified I have become since college. I try to have everything streamlined in my room, and clutter free. Right now, it’s not that way, and it is driving me crazy. I am a cleaner person after coming back from college, and it kind of surprises me, but then at the same time, I realize that if I was a huge mess freshman year of college, I wouldn’t have been able to find anything. Then again, even in a really clean room I can’t find what I’m looking for… I need to work on that.

At some point next week, the kitchen will be uncluttered, and the beautiful blue counter-tops will shine through once again, as well as the rest of the house. Until then, I will bask in the messiness of our bakery right now, and know that there is light at the other end of the tunnel.
