I often have busy weeks, but there are also those days when I just feel bored. I have a feeling you have those types of days too, wherein you feel as if you don’t have anything to do. Whenever I get bored, I usually play with my kids. However, they’re now at that age wherein they just want to play on their own. I enjoy watching them anyway, so that’s what I do. And sometimes, when I am totally bored, I go to the kitchen and whip up something.
It still has a purpose; everything I do as a mother and a wife now has a purpose. So even if it’s out of boredom, I still make sure that the food that I whip up will be enjoyed by my family.
Last time, while my sons are playing with their Lego at the kitchen table where I could watch them, I baked a comfort cake that I knew they would love. Key lime pound cake is a classic favorite in the family. We all love the combination of zest and sweetness.
Usually I pair this off with a cup of tea; it just tastes so great with the bitter but light taste of tea. But you can pair this with whatever you want, even with a tall glass of cold lemonade or iced tea. It will taste great no matter what you pair with it.
