Hello!! My name is Alyssa and I am an 18 year old college student studying nursing. One thing I love to do in my free time is bake. I started baking when I was pretty young at my grandmas house. She would always let me have little treats, but only if I helped her make them, which eventually turned into making them myself. I have been designated the family baker so around the holidays or when we go on vacation, everyone tells me what they want and I bake everyone things for whatever event is coming up. My favorite thing to bake right now is matcha cookies with white chocolate chips, but my dad is the only other one in my family who likes matcha so me and him are the only ones who ever eat those cookies. My mom and sisters like when I make regular chocolate chip cookies or pumpkin cookies more, but I usually wait until the fall to make them. I like baking because it allows me to put my focus into something without feeling like a chore, it is just a fun little hobby.
Another thing I love is Snoopy! My family used to call me Snoopy when I was little and a lot of stuff I remember having when I was little was Snoopy themed. I have a tattoo of him looking at the stars on my right arm and it is by far my favorite tattoo I've gotten (I only have 1 tattoo). There are these Snoopy blankets and everytime I see a new one I have to buy it, so I have five of them right now, plus Snoopy Halloween bedsheets! One of my favorite accounts on Tiktok just posts clips of Snoopy and I love to watch them. Here is the link.https://www.tiktok.com/@snooopyiscool
Having animals is something that is really important to me because I have never not had a pet. Right now we have four dogs and three cats and honestly I love living with animals so much. Sometimes it can get annoying because you can't open the door without one of the dogs being in the way or make something in the kitchen without the cats being under your feet but it fills the house with so much life that it makes all of the inconveniences worth it. When I have work and I have to get ready while the rest of the house is asleep, there is always a dog or cat that is following me around and staying right next to me until I have to go and that is one of my most cherished moments from my day. Here are two of our animals, our dog Tucker and our cat Lucky.
Thank you so much for reading and letting me share a little bit about myself!
I have a friend who is big into baking and his favorite thing to make is matcha baked goods. I've never tried them, but they sound good! Maybe I'll have to find a recipe!
ReplyDeleteI also like to bake, I like to cook food for the people around me, I think I get a lot of satisfaction from giving them food, I like other people to enjoy my food. Also, your animal is very cute, before my friend's family also has a dog, it is very cute.
ReplyDeleteHello Alyssa! It's lovely to meet you and learn more about your interests and hobbies. Your passion for baking and the special memories you have of baking with your grandma sound heartwarming. Matcha cookies with white chocolate chips sound absolutely delicious! And your love for Snoopy is adorable; it's clear he holds a special place in your heart, from your tattoo to your Snoopy-themed collection.
ReplyDeleteI have never tried matcha cookies but now you have me interested in them! Also, I think snoopy is one of the cutest characters around. My younger brother loved him as a kid, so I've watched a lot of Charlie Brown. Love your tattoo!
