For the past two weeks ALL of my time has been focused on doing this-
Now with
12 papers out of the way, I only have
3 more to write,
2 presentations to give and only
3 more days left of school before Christmas break! I have been looking forward to December 18th since about October 18th and it is finally here(almost!) Now I don't have to stay up until 1:00am doing homework, I get to play Wii instead! I am lucky enough to only have presentations for my finals, I guess working by bum off the past two weeks really does have its rewards! This weekend I was so excited to have time that I get to choose what I get to do instead of teachers giving me homework assignments that take up all of my time, so I decided that I would spend the time baking! I love to cook, even though I don't do it as much as I should, but I still love to do it, especially cooking desserts! Friday I spent all day in the kitchen making cookies for my annual family Christmas cookie exchange! It was so much fun! We ate some delicious Cafe Rio and then got to take home a huge box full of cookies and recipes!
The cookies I made are the ones on the right. They are a white chocolate cherry cookie and not to brag or anything, but they were delicious!! I found the recipe
here and this is the recipe I am going to use to make chocolate chip cookies from now on! I changed the recipe a little after reading the reviews and added another 1/2 stick of butter, you can never go wrong with more butter right?
On Saturday my sister and I spent time doing some final Christmas shopping and making homemade marshmallows. I got the idea from the Beehive Bazaar in Provo two weeks ago and I've been dying to try to make them myself. I found the recipe from this
blog and they turned out delicious. We added some crushed up candy canes to them to make them a little more festive and more delicious in hot cocoa. This is the finished project. I think they turned out really cute and fluffy, what do you think?
