baking

‘Tis the time of year that my inner baking goddess comes to life and I feel the need to bake my heart out.  Typically I don’t eat many of my baked goodies; having smelled the essence of chocolate and butter (oooooh lots and lotsa butter) all day long I feel sated–pleasantly full.  I started off strong and positive yesterday morning.  My attitude had a bit of giddy effervescence to it.  Almost 8 hours later and I was less like June Cleaver and a bit more like…well, just a crabby and exhausted wannabe baker goddess with flour and butter on her jeans and sore lower back.  Hence why there are pictures of cookies #1 and #2 and none of the other lovelies.  Another day, another blog post I suppose.  For now, I’d like to share some delightful eye-candy of “Hot Chocolate Cookies” and, a family favorite, “Melting Moments”.  Enjoy!  xo

doesn't this look like ice-cream???? mmmm.
