Saturday morning, we slept in a bit, and then Lisa came over for some much needed bonding over brunch time. (Brunch feast = caramel cinnamon buns, bacon, omelet, cantalope...mmm...) It was great because the whole situation was kinda thus: Rachel calls Lisa says come eat breakfast; Lisa says she'd eaten already but will come for coffee; Lisa comes and eats full serving of food. Ha!
After we cleaned up the breakfast stuff, we just kinda lazed around and then embarked on a new adventure - making sugar cookies using Rachel's amazing KitchenAid mixer and a recipe from Martha Stewart. With this dynamic duo, we were bound to succeed, especially seeing as the recipe involved adding brandy or cognac to the dough - we didn't have either, so we got adventurous and added Disaronno. Mmm...Oh, and we also iced the cookies with Easter coloured royal icing. It was a blast - think arts and crafts meet cookie making. It was priceless.
All in all, it was a great sleepover/lazy Saturday (seeing as I didn't get home until 6:30!) Wow.
Love you girls.
