On This Is My Thing, we are continuing our mission to talk with people about the things they do just for themselves – not because it’s their job and not because it’s a responsibility, just because they love to do it. The stuff you do because it’s your thing.
On this episode of This Is My Thing, we’re talking with Kim Vidrine about Cake Club, which Kim created six years ago to celebrate two of her great loves: her friend group and cake. Every month, Kim and five of her friends (Kathy Nicklebur, Rowena Suarez, Yadira McCarter, Rachel Woodall, and Kelly Gin) each bake a cake then meet up to reconnect while eating six pieces of cake.
On this page, you can listen to the on-air version of Kim’s story, but if you check out the KUT News Now podcast feed, you’ll find a much longer version of this piece.
We’ve talked to a lot of other people about their things and those stories will be coming in future weeks. We’re working on stories about jewelry making, meteorite collecting, a sport called Underwater Torpedo League, and much more. Stay tuned!
And we want to hear from you about the thing you do just because you love it! You’ll find an online form on the main This Is My Thing page where you can tell us about the thing that brings you joy, calms your mind, or feeds your soul in some way.
