A million little peaches

January 8, 2011

In an attempt to get the blog rolling again, I’ll put up two quick posts about what we’ve been up to this semester.

Earlier this year we decided we would risk our sanity by making two things in one night.  It all started with our desire to make meringues… who doesn’t like a meringue?  Well it turns out meringues are very difficult to make at altitude, but we tried anyways.  This is where our sanity was nearly lost: a battle of epic proportions as far as benevolent baking is concerned ensued as Kristin and Theresa argued (mostly fake) about whether or not the meringues were going to turn out and whether or not they should try to make a second desert just in case.  After both bakers had raised their voices and ended the argument with head in hand they (we…) decided to do both!  The second desert ended up being shortbread cakes with fresh peaches and whip cream topping.  All in all, what started as a benevolent baking fiasco turned into a benevolent baking masterpiece.  A choice of  deserts in the library was unprecedented and both turned out quite delicious.  Here are some pictures to prove we are still alive.

Instead of a joke this time, here is a riddle that invovles peaches: go to that website to read it
