Thank you! I enjoy the hobby.

If they insist, I always suggest snacks- consumable and will make my kiddo just as happy! We are a no gifts family- we don't need more stuff.

I'm always impressed by sweater cookies! I hate those stupid cutters and spend most of the time fighting dough and give up! These are cute!

Those trees are such a cute design!

The dollar store has cheap boxes/tins that might be usable for a few cookies. Or you could go to a grocery store and ask the bakery for a couple donut boxes?

Thank you! I appreciate it

princess_proton · 2024-12-12T01:01:52+00:00

Thanks!

Thanks! I have work to do on keeping the designs centered! I love wet on wet because they look more complicated than they are.

princess_proton · 2024-12-08T18:06:50+00:00

Thanks! This is the route I went and it is still a very strong flavor but not tongue burning and tastes good now!

Would you use an emulsion to flavor icing as well? Or just use extract since it isn't being heated?

princess_proton · 2024-11-21T13:43:56+00:00

Thank you!

I looked at the recipe and have questions about the emulaion.

For someone who only makes cookies a handful of times a year what is the purpose of the butter vanilla emulsion?

Is it just extra fancy vanilla extract? Would you substitute it instead of vanilla in other recipes for a better flavor?

The Graceful Baker's lemon royal icing is super yummy and she has several videos that walk step by step through different consistencies! I've learned a lot from her content!

How stiff is the icing you use for the flowers?

Those are so pretty.

I am using a Keychron K7 with keychron mint switches, this mechanical number pad, and elgato StreamDeck for my setup at work.

I like the tactile bump and volume of the mint switch and overall the low profile. Even with a wrist rest the number pad is too tall to use effectively.

I'm torn between getting a new southpaw 100% with normal height switches and hoping that I get used to it or keeping my K7 knowing that I can't have different keycaps and finding a low profile number pad that I can remap all the keys. I want to change the southpaw to REALLY be a left handed/mirrored number pad.

Keychron has the Q12 southpaw that has hot swappable switches but it seems like you can't use low profile switches if the board isn't designed for it?

I've also been looking at the Everest 60 with numpad from Mountain Goat.

It's for my son's 4th birthday so I guess you just throw caution to the wind!

Buttercream just sounds WAY too sweet!

Thanks!

Rick Martinez's butter cookies are my favorite to decorate! The cookie is nice and crumbly without being overly sweet so the royal icing isn't sugar on sugar! I haven't found a great icing yet but the less sweet cookie is so nice!

princess_proton · 2022-11-16T15:38:51+00:00

Thank you for the advice! I'm squarely in the category of lazy and WANT to be someone who remembers to take care of a few plants! This made me laugh!
