Nerds!!! :jig:
That's a lot of chocolate. Is it the kind of chocolate ganache like Giada made for those black and white cookies? Those cookies are simple and yummy ^_^.
Baking can be difficult (measuring is hard), but cooking with someone who knows how to is pretty fun. Back in the day, there were these doughnut holes that I helped make that were so good (I wrote "super good" for my thoughts of it) and when I tried it myself it was so no good >.>. Though, it was a kid's cookbook, I have never (at least that I can remember) been able to make vanilla wafers. They always have this ring of butter around them :yuck:. For awhile though, I was testing stuff out and they at one point were sort of okay (yet, I was the only one able to eat them -_-'). All my cooking I consider to be "experiments" as they (most of the time use no measuring at all :wink
are not always edible :whistling:. One time I made an awesome curry, though, it was only once and it was made per my likes (I put this yummy peach drink in it instead of water *hides*).
What was I talking about again?...Hmm...Oh, so, as for baking, unless you know what something "should" taste like, it can be difficult to know if it is really that good. Okay, that (not really a sentence) just seems weird to me. Um, so, what I mean is...*goes into example mode*...have any of you had a "popover" before? I had not, but tried making it (tastes so much better hot out of the oven rather than later in the day >_<) and my relatives (who had had them before) said that they turned out really good, but I did not think that much of them. Does...does that make any sense? Though, I do not know what my original point was, so, yeah >.>.
Well, anyway, keep up the good work! :alright:
Maybe I should post that one pic I made (not baking related) of a cupcake (it is actually an eraser
) that later shrank into avatar size ^_^. Or maybe not? *wishi washi ness comes in*
Oh, I did realize how it can be better to do stuff right away (or soon) rather than waiting (putting it off) until later. For example, I like to make my own thank you cards and I wanted to complete them by yesterday. Having still two images needed (as nowadays I try to draw my own pictures after I come up with some ideas for the card rather than just find some online) and it was Thursday at the time. Usually I would wait until Friday to work on it, but this year I decided to start on Thursday for my drawing of what I got (as I decided to have a drawing of what I got or things that symbolized them). After spending 6+ hours on it, I just loved the result ^_^ (versus if I tried to scramble something together on Friday like usual)(also, that cupcake eraser was one of the things I got and the drawing came out surprisingly nice). Then for the last image I decided upon the New Year's idea that I never got around to making before the New Year and spent about 8 1/2 hours on it (actually stayed up until 3:30 am as I messed up on something, thus making it take longer
) and I loved that one too :jig:. There would have been another, but I ran out of time (would have been an XMas themed one), instead I used a random one from ealier in the year (last year).
Summing up the above (paragraph) of text: When I do stuff right away, good results will follow versus if it was done later, subpar to horrible results would have followed (or, I might have just not done it until later or at all >.>, in above case though, it would have just been subpar stuff =P).
Oh no! The wall of text has started up again. Quick! *Logs off* *hides*
