Baking... in miniature!
I just spent the last 2 1/2 hours making miniature cinnamon rolls... Took me way too long, my hand was shaking, and I just couldn't get into my usual groove.
I think I am just plain stressed out! Usually making minis calms me, but one of my sisters is having some fairly serious surgery tomorrow and, oh well, I guess I'm freaking a bit! She will be fine; just some high spinal fusion (from which she should recover nicely), but still... Ah, the worry-wart in me strikes again...
Ha! Couldn't even make pecans right! TIP: If you are making teeeeeensy-tiny things out of polymer clay, do NOT bake them for more than a few seconds! I thought 3 minutes would be about right - WRONG! They turned into shiny, oval blobs - no detail left whatsoever. Lesson learned.
All's well that ends well, I guess. I got mad and chopped them up into even smaller pieces; I pretended that they were "chopped" pecans, lol! Worked like a charm! I placed five of my prettiest cinnamon rolls on a white platter, iced them and added some pecan pieces. Yummy!!! I am a true believer that the devil is in the details!!!
