Ben puked on the couch, and even though I had cleaned it with soap and water, it still smelled the next day. I had to resort to putting baking soda on the couch to get rid of the smell!
Dinner tonight: Baked chicken breast, and wing with salad. Arugula & Boston lettuce. Strawberries, blueberries, cherries, pistachios, walnuts and almond slivers. Tablespoon of thousand island dressing (the good kind without a bunch of high fructose corn syrup). Sparkling orange water.
I baked green tea cupcakes today! I haven't tasted them yet, still waiting for them to cool to frost them. I love green tea and I love cupcakes, so I figure I can't go wrong. Aren't they beautiful!
I used Magnolia Bakery's vanilla cupcake recipe (I halved the recipe so that I'd just get 12 cupcakes, but I actually ended up with 13) and added 1.5 tablespoons of green tea powder. Not sure if this is enough, but after I taste it I will know.
Am going to frost with Chockylit's green tea cream cheese frosting, which I will also halve.
This is the final packaging of my Bake Sale For A2A cookies. Cookies are sealed in individual polypropylene bags and packed inside lined resealable kraft paper bag. Each package contains 16 pieces of cookies including:
- Peanut Butter Cookie with Milk Chocolate Chunks
The label is one of my more brilliant ideas. I got the paper bags and polypropylene bags by the case to individually package the cookies ensuring freshness. And then I did a double take and realized hey they look like emergency rations. So I bounced the idea to little brother who graciously designed and printed these labels to complete the look.
Yes, there is such a thing as Cookie Emergency. Read more at Dessert By Candy.

Most homes, particularly in the rural areas do not have an oven, bread is baked in a large communal oven.
Unbaked loaves prepared at home are given an identification mark, placed on a wooden board, covered with cloth and then transported to the baker :)
My Daughter gave me a "Bake Pop" pan for Christmas . Because she knew I had bought Bakerella's "Cake Pop" book that I was ranting and raving to her about.
I admit, I did not follow the instructions as well as I should have and I was more interested in seeing what the pops would be like with regular cake batter instead of greatly reducing the liquid contents, like the instructions suggested you do. Its doesn't really change the flavor as much as the texture of the pops. When you get to the part of dipping in the melted chocolate, its allot harder to do with the fluffier pops than if you had reduced the liquids and ended up with a denser pop. Still it worked out well and I learned allot from it.
I used a few different kinds of chocolate, i mixed a big bar of hersheys dark chocolate with some wiltons mint chocolate melts over a double boiler. It was a tad thick so I added a spoon or 2 of lard.
