its been a while...

Ok, Ok, I know its been a while since I last posted, but I have been a tad preoccupied. You see, I went to Sydney last week....for this not-so-well-known-in-Australia group called Celtic Thunder...so please forgive me (I'm also going to be posting my review here soon, but first things first...).
While is Sydney, I made sure to go and visit somewhere well known...I went and visited Zumbo! Twice to be exact...I went and visited The Lab in Rozelle and then his long skinny Pattiserie in Balmain.

Of course, i bought some Zumbaron's to bring home to Perth! I got: 2x Milo, 2x Musk Stick, 2x Salted Caramel, 2x Raspberry Caramel, 2x 70% Chocolate, 1 Lychee and 1 Plum Pudding. They were yummy!

Sugary, Cookie goodness!

Well, another weekend has come and gone. They just never seem to last long enough! I decided to just bake something nice and easy this weekend, so I made Sugar Cookies! I cheated though - I used a packet (powdered) royal icing! But they turned out good. I did some ducks and mostly flowers.

For the cookies themselves, I used The Decorated Cookie's not-so-secret recipe, and it does make a nice sugar cookie! So without further ado - My Sugar Cookies!!!!!

Just a quick one...

Hi readers,
Just a short blog today. I took my Salted Butter Popcorn Macarons in to work today for my colleague, and they were a hit. Everyone liked them! YAY! Its always good to head people like your cooking, isn't it?

On another note, see over there on the right hand side? --------->
There's a list of links, the first two of which I am asking you to click, one to follow me on twitter, and the other to like my facebook page. I would realllllllly love it if you could do these quick couple of clicks for me! It would be nice to see who my readers are (especially those from Russia, I am extremely curious!)

Cheers!
