If you know me at all then you know I love to bake. And if you talk to my husband he will tell you that I just can't seem to do anything simple. The first time he told me that I thought I might hit him. And then I thought to myself, "you know what, that's okay". I can adapt to doing things simple but if I enjoy what I'm doing that's all that really matters. (Though he does have a point, sometimes it's hard for me to come up with a dinner on the turn of a dime) :)
Anyway, over the past couple weeks I have made a few goodies that were very goody! I thought I would share the websites with you. They are actually from the same site, and they do not disappoint, I will be browsing some more if this girls recipes.
The first thing was Strawberry Lemonade Bars. I made these for Easter and they turned out great. Very refreshing in warm weather, though I wouldn't leave them outside long, they will probably melt.http://bakingbites.com/2008/06/strawberry-lemonade-bars/ Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of them cut up, but they would be great for a bridal or baby shower!
The second thing was home made Girl Scout caramel delights. Oh my, they are soooo good! They are definitely time intensive, but so worth it. My hubby said they were the best cookies I've ever made, and this chick has made a lot of cookies! :)http://bakingbites.com/2008/01/homemade-girl-scout-cookies-samoas/
And lastly on a separate note, Vanderbilt is glad Easter is over so he can stop wearing bunny ears. :)
I am now determined to become better at baking things! I might attempt the strawberry lemon bars sometime.. they sound delicious!
