I tried my first french vanilla cappucinno out of a can this morning and I must say it isn't nearly as bad as I expected. Reminded me of an old girlfriend; not too sweet, a little mellow and yet entirely disagreeable.
I'll be making my fudge brownies again this year and not by popular demand, I might add. I make them because people have a tendency to overlook them or harbor some disdain for their taste, which leaves the majority of these delectable morsels of moist, rich succulent brownies with a coconut pecan topping, ooh, all for me. It must be the Scrooge or Grinch in me, whatever, no need for self analysis here. I just love these brownies and, with some amount of reconsideration, I may just make them and keep them at home....just for me.
Merry CHRISTmas to you too!
That is fine and dandy Chaney, but what about all of the other holidays being held by other cultures during this season? I choose Happy Holidays, so as to not deliberately leave anyone out. Oh, and you didn't answer the question. How did you miss my simple question?
Some people have a hard time considering cultures other than their own.
As for the question, I always enjoy the peanut butter fudge and chocolate fudge that my mom makes. She started early this year and I was able to sample some yesterday.
Hey Egg, she got any of the peanut butter variety left over?
One of my friends is like a local Martha Stewart. She was telling me about her grandkids decorating cookies last year.
She explained that she forgot to get pastry bags to ice the cookies and then described how she managed to make her own with a ziplocking baggy.
She loaded the icing in the zip bag and zipped it, then she cut a very small hole in the very tip of the bag so the icing could be piped onto the cookies. She sent a picture of the final product and they were adorable!
simmons, I doubt there is any left after I grabbed a take home bag on Sunday. Next time I talk to her I'll see if she's got any left.
