I think I speak for all of us that you need to keep taking baking classes.

This paragraph made me laugh so hard!

"Feeling awkward. When it comes to handling dough, that is. Since I haven’t handled large quantities of dough before, it only makes sense that I don’t move confidently through this task. Still, nothing prepares you for the moment when your chef screams “EET’S A BABY!” from across the room, as if watching you manhandle baguette dough is actually causing him physical pain."

Reading this brought to mind a quote James Clear posted about mastery:

“Mastery is the best goal because the rich can't buy it, the impatient can't rush it, the privileged can't inherit it, and nobody can steal it. You can only earn it through hard work.”
