I keep reminding myself to be o.k with being a work in progress, so many rough edges.
Each Challah I make is better in some way, as I focus on improving “something,” each bake. And, I know I have to keep each improvement, allowing some fails to drop off.
The photo above is strangely important, the Challah looks like it is the early stage this project is in.
Focus on the low hanging fruit. Do some easy tasks that need to happen and will have a significant impact. Like practice your braiding and shaping? Yeah. Basics are so important.
Also, this Challah was delicious! Improving my dough handling, braiding and brushing will add 10% finishing, that is a this week goal!!!
My bigger point is, wherever you are, be in the process, practice and improve intentionally, we are all works in progress.
