The highlights of this week include getting locked in a bathroom stall at the gym and shrinking (accidently) one of my favorite shirts. All kinds of things to bring me down so I am sure glad that I started my week by baking. On Tuesday my good friend Brenda came over and we made chocolate covered gingerbread cakes from Martha Stewart’s Baking Handbook. I checked this book out at the library during my two weeks of bronchitis in which I was not allowed to work and went on a baking frenzy. Other items that I baked included: whole wheat, oat and apricot scones and chocolate shortbread fingers. All delicious. But the recipe that Brenda and I made on Tuesday really takes the cake ;) It looked very fancy, but I couldn’t quite get my camera to focus well. Here is a pic of Brenda and Eden with the finished product:
After laboring all morning we ate one, of course. Here is what Eden thought about it:
