Oh my, it looks delicious - no good for my waistline though! I've been cutting back on all the yummy stuff for a few weeks already. It's paying off
ReplyDeleteOh dear, I ought to be cutting off, but at this time of year it's more of a gradual building up. This is why you never see pictures of my waistline. :)
DeleteYUM!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Meredith - and I have to admit they were VERY yummy. :)
DeleteUmmm, yummy! And so simple too, that's a dangerous combo!
ReplyDeleteS x
Simple is best, I think. Thanks Sandra! :)
DeleteOh, my. You're killin' me here. I'd have been right on this if Blogger hadn't disappeared you yet AGAIN from my reading list. Good thing I have you marked on my Bookmarks Toolbar! :)
ReplyDeleteBlogger is trying to hamper our lovely cross-species friendship, but by golly we'll keep in touch regardless! Thank you, Marigold. :)
DeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bev (may I call you Bev?). I do love making pastry. :)
DeleteOh my, Oh me, Oh mercy!!!
ReplyDeleteSo lovely, and so delicious looking..... :-)
It's so nice when food is good-looking as well as good-tasting. Thanks, Auntie. :)
DeleteNow you've gone and done it. You made me drool, AND you made me hungry!
ReplyDelete(Hanging head and crossing toes) Sorry, Deb!
DeleteP.S. No, I'm not! Get thee a tiny pastry and a cup of tea! :)
looks yumm!:) love the glaze, can I use the same to decorate ginger cookies?
ReplyDeleteI think so, Anna. Are you drizzling the glaze, or making designs with it? If you want to make designs, perhaps a royal icing would be better. This glaze is a little softer because of the butter and milk, so it might not work for fancy designs - but I think it tastes much better. It works well for drizzling, or spreading.
DeleteOh, ok then, Mrs. Micawber. Yes, I wanted to use it for decoration.
DeleteY-u-m!
ReplyDeleteGrazie, Isabel! :)
DeleteYou have managed to combine all my favorite flavors and textures into one yummy looking treat!! So, now I am sitting here, drinking my morning tea, thinking you are both lovely and a little mean!! ;)
ReplyDeleteC'mon, you know you can make it yourself in about half an hour.... :)
Delete:)...yes, and your recipes are always fantastic so I trust you implicitly!! :)
DeleteOh yes...I can smell this through the lap top screen. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'll bet you can, with your baker's memory. :)
