More baking fun!

[wiseheart]

Okay, after a two-day-hiatus due to extreme slave labour at school, I got to bake again. Today, special was "Schokoladenkekse mit Hagebuttenmarmelade" - and no, don't ask me what it's called in English, because I don't have a clue. It was hard enough learning all those cooking ingredients in German; and I had to, as the Germans have the best Xmas cookie recipes, jawohl!

In any case, I made these chocolate cookies, glued them together pair-wise with jam, and now they are drying and waiting to be painted with yummy chocolate icing tomorrow.

I also made the dough for Chocolate Stars (with ground almonds, ground black chocolate and other dietetic ingredients) and "Braune Pfeffernüsse" (with honey and special honey bread spices), because they have to rest in the fridge for 24 hours before you can bake them. The kitchen looked like a battlefield, but Mum was feeling generous and sent me away before I could collapse and cleaned up after me. She's truly a jewel.

Lol, I am definitely obsessed with other people's writing! That is why I like LJ, as I can discuss it more. Reviews are for just that, but I love to talk about the plots and characters in people's stories on LJ.

In that case, you're cordially invited to hop over to edhellondawards where my latest LOTR stuff is posted. There is the occasional story or two written by other Edhellond members as well, but mostly they are my stories.

I love LJ for the same reason - plus, there I can sometimes insert pictures about actors who, IMO, look like my characters, so it's double fun.

That's exactly what I love about LJ - I use artwork normally, but occasionally real people, and like to put up images at the beginning of stories, sometimes at the beginning of chapters if I can make up something.

Thank-you for the link, I will definitely go on over! :)
