highlyeccentricCooking is supposed to be fun, right?
Well, what's fun without:
*getting biscuit mix from here to kingdom come?
*getting to the final step of a recipe which began with "cream butter and sugar", and only realising that your mixture is too dry when it sets like a rock in the piping tube?
*ringing your mother for advice, and having a long meandering conversation with her answering machine during which you realise you'd only used half the required amount of butter, back at step one?
*figuring out ways to remedy this?
*figuring out how to use the piping tube, during the process of which several biscuits end up looking like caterpillars, cowpats, and various other things aside from neat fat finger-width biscuits?
*Many of those which acheive the appropriate length and bredth ending up with odd, upward-tilting phallic protuberances at the end until you figure out how to finish off neatly?
*dropping a bowl of biscuit batter, catching it one-handed while the other hand swings the piping tube around and gets batter all up the side of the bench?
*eating nearly as much of the mix as goes into the oven, and then feeling queasy?
a cowpat biscuit
All that remains of the phallic protuberances.
now we wait for dad to come home with the chocolate to coat them :)
