piped shells before baking
baked, split, and iced, but not filled
creamy eclair goodness!
you should be impressed, and jealous! ;)
Honestly, i've never liked eclairs, but a co-worker had a birthday today and that was her favorite dessert...so of course i had to make it from scratch! ironically, she was not working today (gah!) but everyone else enjoyed them, and hopefully she will be in tomorrow b/c i made more for my bible study girls and there are some left. well, i may not have liked them before, but i sure do love them now! i think i had 8! AAHHH!!! bad plan two weeks before going to the beach!
Other deliciousness:
GIANT cinnamon roll/cream cheese danish YUM!
I also made some of my bread which came out especially beautiful this time, but I haven't taken a picture yet.
some friends, coworkers, and family members have been saying that i really need to be "in the baking business" haha, but after so long of saying that it's my dream and i would love to BUT..., i have finally decided to start towards that. just a little, but at least being proactive. i am working on putting together a menu and pricing list and over the next few months will be working towards that. just doing desserts and baked goods for people as needed to see if there is any real business in this, and maybe eventually growing. small small steps for now, but let me know if you need anything! i will try to make anything that people request. we'll see how it goes, but maybe this could be a nice little side thing for when we have kids and i'm not doing the office thing anymore.
