Your list is inspiring. I want to do better at the evening moisturizing. I like your idea of a Baking Day!

I am not a great baker and it is not something that I really enjoy but I have lots of tear outs of magazines of lovely recipes to try. If I don't like them then they can be tossed.....decluttering a win/win.
