clarification...

so I would just like to clarify that at the start of term three I had completed 32 journal entrys on my blog and I will now start blogging again ... and hopefully keep at it! so far I have done 7 - with this bringing it up to 8 ;) which I am pretty pleased with as I only started a few days ago and every blog I write I am getting closer to the 50 that we need to do! and If you look at it this way I am 20% there already ... only another 80% to go :/ I want to aim at having my compolsary entrys done by the essay exam date which is the 28th of november which is 55 days away and not counting full a beans and other days that I wont be at city campus I have 27 school days EEEK!!! thats more that two entrys per school day ... so mabye Im not so confident... I guess I can do an entry on full a beans and my cake class each time I go there and thats two a week... I only have to do five a week ... lets jus say it will be interesting!

beginners cake decorating class

ok so this post may be a bit belated but atleast i remembered before my next class... which is in all of 2 hours :/

but I signed up for a class through adult ed and it (as the title says) a beginers cake decorating one... I was planning to do an informational interview with the lady from "tamar valley cakes" but then I seen her class advertized and I jumped at the chance to take part in it! ... luckly I did because it sold out in a few hours and they had to do another class!

on the first day we learnt about fondant and flower paste, covering a cake board and making cutout shape things with the flower paste.

this week we are filling holes in a fruit cake (which i made very late last night) and to be honest im not sure what else!

I learnt so much and gemma gave us heaps of tips which would have taken ages for us to figure out! anyway, im keen for tonight and once again i will keep fyou updated :)

crackle cookies...

the best thing yet!!
so they may not be the best thing Ive made but cookie wise... amazing!

I tend to have a problem when making cookies.. there always over cooked and hard as a rock... kind of
but no matter how many times i cook them i cant get them right ...

then I seen a recipe for these crackle cookies and omg i had to try them ...

and im so glad I did!!!!!

they are really flat and I thought they were going to be rock hart but you bite into them and they just crumble and melt!!!!

there so soft and WAY sugary!!! (mabye a bit to sugary...)

but omg amazing!!!

im thinking of adjusting the recipe a tiny bit mabye looking at the butter content aswell as flour content and mabye not o much sugar but im thinking that texture wize I am heading towards mrs fields!


will post the recipe and photos tomorrow but for now....

Im going to enjoy a cookie :)

driving again

"on the road again . . .
Just can't wait to get on the road again."*quoting shrek how sad!*

so far I've been driving 4 times! (WOW) but ive only been driving around windsor park and industrial areas but yesterday I actually went on the road haha ... i pretty much went up a road and then back down but it was a pretty big loop and so much fun! I may have freaked out a bit and almost wiped off a car but no one was in it so thats ok! :/ but then when we went to the supermarket we realized that there was no one on the roads so we turned around and I drove along the highway!
I am constantly on mum about going for a drive! its so much fun!!!
will keep you updated!!

hopefully its all good news ;)
