Drying Time

I had a cookie order due tomorrow that is now drying on the island. Royal icing takes about 8 hours to dry, a little less in the dry winter. The cookies look really slick & shiny since they are wet but will dry with a matte finish.

No luster dust on these tomorrow-they are for a baby boy shower.

Thankful that my headache is completely gone & excited that our basement will be nearly finished tomorrow...2+ LONG years!!!!!

The baking & icing went quickly tonight as I discovered that I could place our computer monitor in the window that peeps into our kitchen. Rick Steves Europe & Alfred Hitchcock Presents on hulu are great choices for late night projects. My girlfriends all had a night out & I missed them sorely, but T's father flew in early and it turned out that I needed to drop him off around 5:30ish.

Have a blessed weekend! Did I mention that our basement will be getting finished?!?!?!
