My B is the Best B who ever B'd a B
Isn't she lovely? I spent Sunday morning rolling, cutting and baking gingerbread while she was in the bedroom baking Norbert/Norbertetta Jr. By the time I had to go to E's house to help her get her party ready, B wanted to frost the cookies she was bringing to the party we were to meet at later. So I helped her get through a simple royal icing recipe (3 cups sifted confectioner's sugar into 2 stiff-whipped egg whites with a big dose of fresh lemon juice), getting it into a piping bag and then let her rip. She's so great! I was really under the gun for time and feeling frazzled and she just....made me happy to be there with her.
The chopped liver was a surprising hit at E's party, all of it being consumed well before the end of the party -- I thought I had made too much. It's gratifying to know that I can make something well that I don't personally care for.
In the late evening, B and I went to the restaurant for their holiday party, was a lot of fun with drinks abounding and Japanese food, but I could see B was fading fast and took her (and her baked good) home soon after midnight.
