I haven't said anything about Thanksgiving ... yet! I have approximately 5 billion things to be thankful for - all year round. And that is almost not an exaggeration. :). Seriously. Life is great - I have a splendid family, a wonderful husband, a great job, a marvelous Savior, a forgiving God ... I have no room to complain. Ever. But if I did, here is what I'd complain about tonight:
Why does this pintrest idea .... come out looking so much less awesome when I do it?!
Okay, so at least some of them really did come out looking like different colored leaves - even if they weren't quite as good looking as the mystery person who I stole the idea from.
But, since after like 2 hours of baking pretty much all I have to show for it is this:
this Thanksgiving I am especially thankful for my momma, grandma, aunts, and sister. Because seriously, if my family was counting on me to deliver some amazing deserts tomorrow we'd all be in trouble. BUT since I have all these wonderful women to cook some splendid dishes to share, my sad looking leaf cookies can be ... well, hidden behind some tasty pies. =).
I'm so sorry, but this made me laugh out loud! This is the story of my life! I always see great recipes that look absolutely beautiful...and mine always taste good, but the presentation is always awful! So frustrating!
ReplyDeleteBut like you said, it's a great thing we don't have families that put a lot of emphasis on how it looks! :)
