These #reverb10 prompts are starting to make me feel like a Yo Gabba Gabba episode. You know what I mean.<\/p>\n
What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it?<\/i> (author: Gretchen Rubin)<\/p>\n
The last thing I made was shortbread. In fact, it is still cooking. When it is done cooking I am going to sprinkle Skor bits on top and I am hopeful that this will be the most fucking delicious thing ever consumed. The other day I wrote about shortbread on my facebook page and my cousin said, “with Skor bits on top?” and I was all, what? What what? Then I was at Superstore today getting groceries and while Fresco was busy taking off his socks to check for dirt between his toes, I saw that in fact there are packets of Skor bits in the baking isle! WHAT WHAT! So I bought some. I don’t know how much they cost, maybe it was $20, I don’t care, toffee is awesome.<\/p>\n
So for the shortbread, I used:<\/p>\n
1 cup of butter
\n1 cup of flour
\n1 cup of cornstarch
\nhalf a cup of icing sugar
\npinch of salt
\nsploosh of vanilla<\/p>\n
I am baking it for 25 minutes at 325 degrees.<\/p>\n
Is there anything I would make if I had the time? <\/p>\n
I would knit my own socks. I don’t know how to knit and I know from the people around me that it is a rather consuming hobby and potentially pricey as well but since we’re wishing. Socks.<\/p>\n
Mostly what I make is food. And sweet love. And gin and tonics. <\/p>\n
But you should go read Jen’s entry <\/a> because she makes, like, LOTS of things and then go read Arwen’s <\/a> because she made a skipping song! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" These #reverb10 prompts are starting to make me feel like a Yo Gabba Gabba episode.
