Mystery loaf

 The oddest thing is that I really don't remember at all what this loaf was supposed to be, what recipe I used when making it... or anything at all, really! Isn't that terribly interesting. Nevertheless, it's a lovely rustic loaf, which I can only assume was made artisan-style.

Fondant Roses

 Fondant roses don't exactly spell, "yummy", but there are very enjoyable to make! You don't need special cutters to shape roses, though a ball toll does help a great deal when working with fondant because it's so stiff.
After years of practise, I've made a video to share my techniques.  Unfortunately, the only flowers I can make are roses.

Nestle Toll House Cookies

Baking has always been something somewhat frustrating for me. It's so hard to get right, and you make mistakes and fail all the time. I've tried to make more youtube videos, and you can watch them on Youtube.Com/RebekahMui. There are some singing videos, baking videos and herb videos, so do check it out!

Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip cookies are traditional and iconic now, so it's hard to imagine a time they were not universal, a time before they were destined to take the world by storm. Once you've made these chocolate chip cookies using the TollHouse chips, you just couldn't imagine using anything else, except maybe even more "posh" chocolate chips. 

There are crunchy, sweet, chewy, and absolutely delicious. Perfection.



 The hardest thing about blogging is getting photographs! Writing paragraphs between them isn't tough at all, when I have the mood. These were all taken my Lenovo smartphone camera.

Yum! I'm thinking about tollhouse chips now. They are so precious, because I got several pounds of them on vacation in California and have to ration it out and save it for special occasions. The family loves it, and, personally, I can eat them without stopping.
