25 Days of Baking

Have you ever watched a movie that had cooking through out the whole movie? Well I recently watched Julie and Julia, and I even went to the library and checked out like 3 of her cookbooks. In the movie they talk alot about Aspic: jello like mold that you put your meat and veggie in and eat it.. yuck! I like to cook more than I like to bake. I know that sounds funny coming from someone who has a whole blog about cakes. but decorating cakes and baking desserts are two totally seperate things. So after the Julia Child aspiration failed, the Christmas season has dropped in my lap. So my next idea was to have a dessert made, everyday until Christmas. What am I doing with all the desserts you may ask. Well they are going directly to my and daves place of work. I started December 1st and I will just label them day 1,day 2 - only because It is hard to bake on Friday and Saturday unless I plan to go drop them off somewhere. and I will judt double up 2 desserts during the week so I can make it to 25! Off we go....


Day 1: Christmas Bark - Oreo's/Mint cookies/White chocolate & Andes morsels.
Day 2: Chunky Chocolate chip and Pecan cookies.

Day 3: Forgotten cookies - egg whites and sugar??? who would have thought.
