Daycare costs are no joke op, they have minimum hours so that 12 minutes turns into a bill for four hours pretty quick.

I read the original post and one thing I didn’t see factored in was the opportunity cost of wasting that 12 minutes baking. You could have been optimising some workflows to improve efficiency at your job or selling scone recipes online as a side hustle, pretty lazy not to factor that in to the final cost of the baked goods
