Well last night was a bad night at work! Grant it most nights aren't great, but last night I thought 7 a.m. would never come!! I wish I could stay home and bake all day...have I said that before lol...Then I slept today and I woke up with a horrible headache and just feeling lousy, if you are a girl you probably know how I felt! So I was going to stay in bed and say phooey with it all but...my mom called. Little N is staying with her and had been saying my name apparently all day, she asked if I wanted to go out to eat with them and of course I did!! When she drove up he yelled come on Kim in his little voice....awww I love that little guy!! So of course my heart melted and nothing else mattered :) We ate dinner and then went to Walmarts. My mom was so great helping me try to find Nutella and pizza dough for a recipe I was going to make tonight, it's a Chocolate Hazelnut Ring. So we got all the stuff and they left to go home. So I must say my inspiration for baking tonight was Little N, hence why I posted his picture at the top of my blog tonight!! So I got out the recipe book to look over the recipe I was going to make, and yes you need hazelnuts to do a Chocolate Hazelnut Ring!! (duh Kimberly!) Guess I forgot to buy those plus they needed to be toasted after I bought them...So I decided to make the Little Jac
k Horner Pies instead. I was going to be lazy and use the refrigerated crust but it was expired! So I made the dough from scratch from a recipe in the book. It actually isn't hard to make and it tastes good! I used peach preserves for my filling (*Note to self* Peach preserves while harmless in the jar are freakin hot when coming out of the oven and I have the burn mark on my finger to prove it! LOL) The hazards of baking! I did not try them as I don't like fruit as mentioned before so I will leave it up to my friends and family to comment!! Today turned out to be a good day after all :p I am ready to head to bed now though....Goodnight everyone and Bon Appetit!!!

Glad to hear Little N helped make your day. He has a way of doing that :) And he does love his Aunt Kim!! That chocolate hazelnut ring sounds good. I'd love to be around when you make that :)
ReplyDeletehey Kim, those corner pies are a real hit.
