Step by step homemade baking recipes
The weather here has been down right FREEZING! I know I live in Canada, and I know it’s winter (well almost) but -30C is ridiculous! There’s a wind chill to boot as well. For the last couple of years, due to Paul’s “encouragement” I’ve tried to embrace winter. It hasn’t worked. Yet. I’m trying again this year, and decided to buy a down jacket, and adult snow pants (do you know they make those things without overalls now?!) So with my down jacket, and Ugg boots (no snowpants though . . . I’m saving those for ice fishing) we left the house yesterday and went for a walk. For 20 minutes. It was all we could handle . . . well, it was all I could handle. I’m sure Paul could have gone for much longer as I’m a wimp. My jacket kept me super warm and I enjoyed my new purchase until my face froze and my legs froze and I had those to complain about. Complaining is what I do best after all.
After our outside jaunt, I was desperate to be warmed up, and a warm cup of hot chocolate was in order. These candy cane marshmallow pops are super quick to assemble, and add delightful tastes to your warm cup of hot chocolate! They would also be delicious in a cup of coffee.
Bah humbug!Just kidding. I live with a bah humbugger, but I definitely don’t feel that way! But, after a week of 22, 5 year olds with Christmas excitement, I’m about ready to boycott the holiday. There are only two more days of teaching left though, so I’m sure I can make it through . . . and then I will be basking in my unlimited time time off to bake!
Unlimited? Ha! Christmas cupcakes! Christmas Cakes! Christmas Cookies! Christmas Platters! They are all on my agenda for my time away from the day job.
I have found the time to put together a couple of Christmas Cupcake videos for you to enjoy. These Christmas Cupcake ideas are dead easy. Dead! I promise. If you don’t think so, you can leave a mean comment in the comment box . . . like some people like to do! Honestly, why waste your time commenting, if all you have to say is something mean? I just don’t get it. [Read more…]
