Girl's Baking Weekend...

Girl is going to a friend's house on Friday afternoon to bake cookies and then try and ice them using royal icing. Given the fact that Girl has never done royal icing before, Girl is feeling extremly apprehensive that the whole project will come a cropper....

Sweet dreams are made of these...

...but how will Girl's cookies turn out...??



Girl has a birthday to attend on Saturday afternoon and she is planning to spend Saturday morning making pear and ginger muffins and icing them with either a lemon buttercream frosting or creamcheese frosting and decorating them with either fondant cutout flowers or royal icing butterflies...

...or if she is feeling very demoralised by the previous day's results, she may not bother at all, but instead, lie down in a darkened room with a load of aspirin and a bottle of rum!

The incredibly sweet and pretty cookies in the picture above were made by Louise over at cakejournal.com...Read it and be inspired!
