Tread softly in the kitchen, speak low,
the oven mustn't be disturbed.
Heavy footsteps are taboo
with the cheesecake setting
to its gelatinous perfection.
The key ingredients are timing
and a quiet environment.
Like a watched pot won't boil,
a cheesecake baking must
never be disturbed.
For Mikeydred's Truly July Unofficial Challenge, which can be found at this link. July 30th (today 🥳) is National Cheesecake Day, and I love baking and enjoying a good cheesecake!

The Grace of Reciprocity
The only unspoken understanding now is this: if you ignore me, I absolutely won't bother you. This isn't about being competitive or indifferent; it's about acknowledging the most basic truth of adulthood: relationships must be mutual, not sustained by stubbornness.
