biscuits part 2!

Tarà! Orange and lemon flavoured, they were easy to do, but again, recipe totally wrong! I had to double the flour and they were supposed to stay 10 minutes at 190°C!!!! Definately too much heat, so I sticked to 150°C and they came out perfect!

biscuits!


How come I cannot publish another picture on the same post?
Well, anyway, this was the first try with the 2-colours rings... As for the recipe they needed to stay 20 minutes in the oven at 180°C... of course they got burnt! So, these were in the oven for 10 minutes at 150°C! Much better!

Xmas is coming

Christmas. Am not a big fan. And this year is going to be weird. I love giving presents, but unfortunately I am not sure I'll be able to buy them this year. I have a job, but I will not get paid till January, as the company is having some problems, and so thinking of not being able to give my family the presents I would like to give them, makes me even less keen than usual to Christmas. Plus, I usually give some money to charity this year and the thought I cannot even spare 10 euros...
Blimey. The spirit of Christmas. Plus I'll be 31 in less than a month and I'm honestly starting to feel old... old and tired!
Any suggestions to help me feel more useful to the world???
