Once again... bad at cooking

[amezri]

I made another batch of Anzac bikkies with the recipe Sezza gave me last month. That's three batches and every single one has been different. I followed the ingredients exactly today and they were totally different from the first batch I made a few weeks ago... I can't do baked goods apparently.

I want the pictures used in this gif and any other that are similar. I don't know why.. but I just want them. Feed me!!

Also, I love soulstar! She went to Chariots of War IV this past weekend and got me something signed by Hudson Leick! *squee!!* Hudson rocks! Soul' is a rock star! *hugs* She mentioned that Hudson tried out for the part of Harley Quinn in the new Batman spin off, "Birds of Prey," but didn't get it. Apparently the producers toned Harley down, so Hudson was too over the top for them. Pfft. Harley must be over the top. How can you "tone down" Harley? That's just.. wrong...

In other news... Jen may be my sewing hero. *g*

You don't have Peanut Butter Cups?! That's a crime! I will *definitely* have to send you some then. Maybe throw in some mini peanut butter cups and Reese's Pieces, too (sort of like peanut butter M&Ms).

What exactly is golden syrup? :-/

LMAO!! Funny you should say that... I was discussing with Ray yesterday about what stuff to send you... he suggested the following: Anzac bikkies, Vegemite, Iced Vo-Vo's, Pav egg, Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs and Nutella. I, quite disbelievingly, asked "They don't have ANY of those?! What kind of lives are these people living?!?!" *giggle*

Yes, I also feel it's a crime you've missed out on half the incredibly nummy Australasian delights that exist... ;)

Golden syrup is... it's hard to explain. I'll try now, but I'll probably have to get a better explanation off mum. It's like a honey... but not. It's actually a syrup. It's one of the main ingredients in Anzac bikkies. Those ones I sent you? That sweet, strong taste in them is mostly the golden syrup. It is sooooo yummy. Especially when poured on top of crumpets and melted butter... *dies* And if you tell me you've never had crumpets, I'm going to have to pay for your plane ticket out here myself. ;)

Iced Vo-Vo's...? Um.. hmm... And we do have Nutella. I just bought a jar today at the store. Mm.. Nutella. hehehe

If golden syrup is important to Anzac bikkies, then that's probably why mine don't taste quite right. That and, you know, I can't bake :-P

Have crumpets here... haven't had any.

Iced Vo-Vo's... soooo yummy. Biscuit. Then it has sort of this crumbly, sweet strawberry-ish frosting on top, with a strip of strawberry jam down the middle, and the entire top covered in coconut. YUM-MO!!

oh, and you don't like coconut, was that right? Mum said "Tsk, tsk! The coconut is very important to the Anzac biscuits." ^_^ Sorry, I didn't know that, otherwise I woulda said something sooner. *g*

Nutella is delicious. As good as Tim Tams... mmm... Tim Tams. Damn you! I'm stuck at home with nothing to eat, I'm STARVING because I haven't had lunch yet, and here we are talking all types of sinful delights! *whimper*

Crumpets are absolutely devine as soon as you've toasted them, then put some peanut butter on and let it melt... Guuuuhhh... yummy. Same goes for raisin toast/fruit loaf. ^_^

Sweety, you aren't on AIM? *sniffle*

Coconut - I like 'em okay as long as they are pretty well integrated into the recipe. I don't like the texture too much.

Nutella - soooo yummy!
