Well, adventures in cooking has come to a close. It cost me around $100 to get everything I need, including when the recipe provided the ingredients but not essential equipment such as a rolling pin, cooking cutters and such. I think the poppy seed ones turned out the best and am rather happy with them. Some of the larger expresso cookies exploded. The apricot cookies are chilling in the fridge, and I will check on them tomorrow. I can't believe I've been cooking since around 2 p.m. I'm too exhausted to do my greeting cards so they will happen tomorrow night or maybe during lunch break at work tomorrow. I now have to decide how to divide the cookies among the four people that will be receiving them. If my lazy ass would have started the cookies yesterday, I would be able to put them in their cute little cupcake holders I bought for them. But at least I can call myself productive now. I'm having Tom come over tomorrow to test-taste cookies before I send them out Tuesday. I will admit that as tiring as that entire process was, it was indeed fun. I should bake things more often.
