Life's like that.
Prior experience of handing around things at work and fielding constant questions about what everything is. Making a leaflet will save me lots of time.
I used the photo of my biscuits to make a little labelled handout, with what each one is and which ones are vegan/wheat/dairy/gluten free. It looks very spiffy if I do say so myself.
The gift bags I printed out are going to be way too small, so I'm going to attach the Christmas pictures to a brown paper bag instead and add a couple of decorations.
I just ate four for dessert ๐
I thought I'd lost Miss Meow this afternoon, but she was just in my wardrobe snoozing on my socks. Escaping the baking chaos.
It's the first time I've used it! I bought a Tefal Snackmaker years ago, which is like a jaffle iron with changeable plates. It's taken me this long to get around to actually making anything with these plates. They look pretty fancy though, I might have to try the chocolate version next.
The air conditioner has done a great job in making sure I keep my cool.
Biscuits complete!
I am giving a bag with one of each type of biscuit to my family, plus a tub full for my Mum and a tub for each of the two teams I am with at work. Plus a smaller container for me.
I am starting to run out of room in my kitchen, there are biscuits everywhere! Just one more batch to go & I'll be finished baking and can start on dividing up & packaging. I did end up doing an extra batch too, as I realised there is nothing vegan friendly, so I made some oat & date biscuits that are vegan and wheat free. I also learned that in Australia you can't claim something is gluten free if it has oats because some people with Coeliacs Disease react to them, so wheat free is generally used instead.
I didn't save the pfeffenusse recipe I used last time and I don't think this one is as good - the other ones were a bit softer and spread, these ones are hard round balls. I realised too late that I emailed someone the recipe last time, so have managed to find it for next time at least.
I remember after the heatwave before Black Saturday there was a day in the high 30s and I was really happy to have finally have some cool weather.
