plain flat cookies

Sounds delish, huh?

Well, that is was I needed to make to bring to my class. (tonight!!!!) 6 plain flat cookies.

Mmmm…. sugar cookies.

I can’t wait to coat these babies with a layer of sugar -laden frosting.

I can’t wait to learn how to make those yummy roses.

And guess what? Y’all can come. Figuratively speaking, that is.

I got the “OKAY” to document all of it. 16 weeks of all the fancy stuff with cakes.

With a break in December…because everyone is busy in December. If you’re not, can you please be my personal assistant that month? I will pay you in cookies and cakes and truffles, too. 😉

So here is the before:

yawn. Quite boring looking don’t you think?

Let’s bake em:

wow. same. hmmm…..

they really need some clothes-of the frosting variety.

So, I haven’t only had cookies the past 24hrs.

I also made a kick-butt London broil…

and some mini quiches.

Unfortunately my time has lately been consisting of learning that camcorder and using video editing software. Ughhhh and arghhhh. I love technology sometimes. Like, when it’s easy.

This video endeavor has not been. Partially due to my own stubbornness. I know You-Tube uploads are cake. I have to go and try and get all Coppola and want to do more. Ugh. We don’t need dramatic cooking videos, I know. 🙂 But, wouldn’t you like something a little more fun? I do. So…. I’m working obsessing on that.

As for tomorrow… I will give y’all “lesson one” from my class… along with my usual ramblings about this and that…with the occasional complaint about life’s mysteries…(why do dogs lick thier butts?)
