i woke up this morning with a craving!! ok, nothing new - but its summer, and usually the only baking i do is in my toaster oven! but here on the west (wet) coast - its still cool...cool enough to bake!
so satisfy my craving, i could!!! and i wanted cinnamon buns!! esp. loving my kitchen aid - makes whipping up a batch of anything simple, effortless, wonderful!!
as the buns were beautiful rising in the oven - i go to my cupboard and cannot find any powdered sugar! now how can you have cinnamon buns and no cream cheese frosting!!! baking in my pj's puts a damper on knocking on my neighbors door to borrow a cuppa!! so i decided to make my own!!
about 1/3 cup of granulated sugar in the blender...it took several rounds on 'liquefy'
and voila! powdered sugar...granted a bit grainier than i wanted...i should have pulled out my food processor..but hey, i'm baking in my pjs, i'm starving - its got to be fast!!
ok, i'm off to make a pot of coffee...and now i should go knocking on my neighbors door - and invite her to join me!!
now i know my posts have been few and far between lately...its not that i dont care!! i sit down to my computer to write...and i'm wordless..it just hasnt been coming! i dont know if i'm in a creative slump, panic - trying get everything ready for the bead festival!! - or what?! but i will continue on..and thank you for your patience!!
happy day!
Supah classy! I like the ghetto powdered sugar recipe :D
