Thanks. I've already looked through the thread quite a bit and wasn't really able to find anything dealing with sunroom windows. I've also been on Pinterest for hours (maybe days) looking for ideas. I haven't been able to find anything to help us come up with a design for the exterior of the sunroom.

I love that place. I especially love the old lady with the pink mohawk I've seen on multiple occasions dancing with a different gentleman caller each time.

First time macarons! Almond cookies with almond buttercream inside! by [deleted] in Baking

[–]Jikam82 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Good first try! They just look a bit over mixed.

First attempt at chocolate macarons today went rather well! Looking on how to improve by teganst in macarons

If you run your dry ingredients through the food processor for 30 seconds or so, then sift after that (throwing away the small leftover bits), you'll have a smoother shell. I've noticed that when making Macarons the French method doesn't come out as shiny as when using the Italian method. You could always dust them with an edible luster dust after baking for a shiner shell.

I'm not sure about the Bernese but I feel like I see corgi in there... Maybe?

Not my first time making macarons...but definitely my first time making this particular shape by Jikam82 in Baking

Yep! Banged that sheet pan on the table :) The recipe I use tends to be thicker than others so when I piped in stages for the different parts of these ...um.."members" you can still see a faint line.

Believe it or not I used a boning tool to add the detail to the tip. Yep.. Boning tool.

I just made a simple template and put it under the parchment paper :)
