My big project for the day is done. I made two batches of light
fruitcake, and the second will be finished backing in about 5 minutes. Then they sit and cool off for a couple hours before they get soused with brandy. There were a few snags. I forgot to take the butter out of the fridge the night before to soften. I was half way through mixing up the first batch when my brother dropped by for coffee, so it got into the oven a little later than I had planned. It was 20 minutes from the end of its baking time when the groomer called to say the dog was ready to be picked up. I was able to scoot over there very quickly and make it back on time. Here we are with just a couple minutes to go and I have two dogs pacing in and out to tell me it's time to go to the dog park. |
