Holiday Sugarfest
Today I put together a box for J to take to his co-workers. Let's just say I don't plan to set foot in the kitchen tomorrow.
The box of goodies included the bacon cheddar biscuits I made this morning, some biscotti from last week, an array of gingerbread people and trees, rose flavored caramels covered in dark chocolated and sprinkled with sweet paprika, and pecan pralines. C came over and decorated gingerbread people with me.
Mine were sweet and imbued with traditional holiday spirit.
Hers had a lot more personality. Serves me right for letting a lawyer handle royal icing unsupervised. The evil gingerbread person is herself. She's going to set it on her desk as a guard cookie.
A closeup of a rose caramel. Oops, didn't notice that hole in the side until it was magnified to twenty times its actual size.

Whaaaa? While I slave away at the office, you people decorated gingerbread men? So unfair! And what were you thinking, putting C in charge of her own cookies? Let's just say if I were in her place, I would've made some potentially obscene people. You know, anatomically correct ones. - T.
