Pic 1&2 - batch 4. (Espresso shells) Mixture was too thin so out spread fast. Did rise but barely - feet did grow but not good enough. It didn't help that the mat is new and couldn't straighten causing them to slide the moment they were piped. Pic 3 - batch 4. Same mixture on a different trsy. The tray had ridges so basically everything on the outside slid too. Undercooked so it stuck and didn't want to hop off the Wax paper. Pic 4- batch 5. Just purple, non flavored. It rose. Feet grew. But unfortunately the mat although food flatten a little just didn't do it enough. Also i over baked a bit so it has a crunch but actually pretty yum. Pic 5 - batch 5. Barely any batter left i only piped in certain areas. Still some played slip and slide but it worked. It rose. Had feet. Has nice chewy consistency - but not too much and it lifted perfectly. ° I added a [fresh] mango honey buttercream to both sets of batch 5 and there ya have it. (I accidentally left the buttercream really close to the oven so it ended up super thin and liquidy .. so i put the cookies in the fridge after this pic. #kimmcantcook #khjunkfoodjourney #smplistiqxeats #smplistiqxcrafts #smplistiqjourney #frenchmacarons #mangohoneybuttercream #macarons #igfoodies #foodporn #foodxperiments #nerdynummies #rosanapansino #kawaiisweetworld #kawaiisweetworldrecipe #sweetc0okiepie

The wait.

I think in this month, I’ll be trying my best to get what I need to be done, done. I know I say this all the time; but, things come up and sending out mail and editing blogs and such just can’t be a priority right now. Although, I must add that I’ve added searching for the ideal cookbook/recipe binder template to this list of projects. With the new move and that’ll eventually become official,…

Lost Photos & New Memories

It’s been a minute. You know, sometimes it really takes for something to happen for you to realize what you took for granted, what you actually lost, and what to do to overcome these “hardships.” Recently, I had lost / had my phone stolen at a local Safeway. For anybody who isn’t around here, it’s like a Raley’s, Nob Hill, etc. Your pretty basic local super market/grocery store. I was in the…

Got my nails did today to prep for Halloween. Broke my real nails to promise to myself because I needed long nails for the season! Done @ Nail Art , San Jose.

Do not chase people. Be you and do your own thing and work hard. The right people who belong in your life will come to you, and stay.

Went to Nail Art for some #retailtherapy #nailarttherapy and walked out feeling like a #diva . check them nails ! Pink on thumb and ring finger. Black tips on index, middle and pinky. Glitter over the entire nail on index middle and pinky. Normally I don't get so much glitter ... but for today, why not?!
