Lily’s favorite hobby was baking cakes. She lived in a small town with her family.
Every weekend, she stayed in the cozy kitchen with her mom and dad to bake delicious
cakes. Lily's favorite part was mixing the ingredients. She loved how the flour, sugar, and
eggs came together to form dough. Her dad helped her shape cookies, while her mom
taught her to frost cupcakes with colorful icing. They were very happy.
One sunny day, Lily decided to surprise her best friend, Sarah, with freshly baked
chocolate chip cookies. She carefully followed her mom's recipe, and soon the house was
filled with a mouthwatering aroma. When Sarah arrived, she was overjoyed by the
warm, delicious cookies.
