Chocolate Eclairs - 1/23/2012

Looking through my cook book I came across this recipe.  Never thought about making eclairs before because I have always thought they were hard and look a long time to make.  These, however, proved me wrong.

 Vanilla Pudding, heavy whipping cream, and vanilla extract = YUM

Chocolate frosting 




These are melt in your mouth yummy goodness...have them with a cup of coffee in the morning and you are off to a good start!

Gingerbread House - 1/17/2012

During Christmas this year I decided it was time to make a gingerbread house again. The last time I made one was when I was in elementary school.




 Making the ground 'Snowy'

Winter Wonderland 

 Front side of the Mansion

 Snowman Family

Christmas Tree 

Finished :D 






It took me a long time to figure out what to do with the mansion and how I should decorate it, but now that it is done I'm happy with the finished product.
