Petit Fours

These are some of the best desserts to make, eat and if there are left overs, give away!   I am going to make some today. 

Scarlette can help with mixing ingredients.  Joey loves to do the taste testing.  I love when everyone stands/sits around the kitchen, excited to try my food.   

Being in a kitchen, creating something that is going to make everyone "mmmm... that's good" makes me feel content.   Its like my happy place.   

I will be updating later today with pictures.  Time to go bake.

 

Update.   Petit fours are done.   They came out so yummy.   I made 3 flavors of cakes.  Coconut, Strawberry and Almond.  Then I used a rum-butter flavoring in the chocolate.   MMMM... so good.   My little brother and my son would have eaten them all if allowed.   Scarlette just wanted to eat all the strawberry cake.   I will positively make these again.  Next time hopefully less going on.  My niece busted open her eye lid and I rushed them to the ER in the middle of the baking.   She is fine and they were able to glue the wound shut.  She is a tough little cookie.   She didn't do much crying once things calmed down.  The entire 21 miles to the ER she sat so well in Scarlette's car seat.   I am happy I was able to take her and make sure she was ok.   It was a sad and chaotic day but happy too.
