On our second failed attempt at making bread together

So one of my special when-I-have-a-little girl fantasies is making all sorts of cookies and treats with her and teaching her how to add the flour and sugar etc etc.  Always wanted to do that and so we tried to make orange bread for the ladies I visit teach.  Here is a pictorial:

















Cute huh?  Lizzie really dug it. I will cherish its memory forever.  Unfortunately, I was so entranced by our activity that I only added 2 cups of the 4 cups of flour needed.  The loafs fell flat and so I have eaten most of it but have no more "ganas" to make loaves again so I bought them all cute Christmas socks.  And so ends our saga.

On the flip side, I made these most delicious and pretty dulce de leche neighbor gifts.  Easiest gifts ever.  You simple bake condensed milk in the oven in a water bath for 90 minutes and it turns into dulce de leche.  Then, you package it with an apple for dipping and a cute card and voila!



I finally feel that I could put something up on pinterest and be proud of it.  Haha.
