I spent my afternoon baking! I was in charge of dessert for an end-of-year party tomorrow night. I know I much prefer homemade dessert, so I figured everyone else would too.
I was kind of dreading coming home and dirtying up the kitchen, but as soon as I got started, I was reminded of how much I enjoy baking! Although, I do not do well around endless amounts of dough…
I mixed up the dough and then let it chill while I went to spinning. It was an hour-long class and it was really tough today…but felt good in the end.
I used a simple sugar cookie recipe from the Joy of Baking, and the end result was just how I like ‘em. Moist, thick, and nearly raw on the inside…
But they looked a little plain…
I was a little sloppy with the bag, but I smoothed these over with a spoon after I was finished.
And of course, I sampled two. And then went back for another. Success.
I’m off to bed and I have back to back gatherings tomorrow! See ya.

Welcome to TBT!
I've created this blog because I'm in a bit of a quarter life crisis. Since graduating from college in 2008 and earning an advanced degree in school psychology in May, I still don't know what career path to follow. All I know is that time is moving way too fast and I find myself living only for the weekends. Bear with me as I attempt to reclaim my twenties by finding pleasure and balance in the work week and incorporating my passions of food, fashion, fitness, and fun into everyday life. 
These look absolutely delicious

those look so yummy right now!
Will you bake those when you live in North Carolina (near me?)
As long as we have someone to give 30 cookies to…
Frosting things is not a “skill” that I have. I figure as long as it doesn’t all melt off or blend to the point of looking brown, I’ve achieved a victory of sorts.
