Description Here's one for after her professed love for oreos. This is one of the few times I've ever used them in baking. I basically only use them if I want a really dark coloured cheesecake base. These were some leftovers I had. I also had some leftover batter from a few other baking projects, so I whipped up these.

Oh my word, this looks too good to be true. I wish I had a friend like you who lives near me and always bakes excess stuff so she'll offer some to me! You're such a fantastic food artist!

Aw, thanks so much. You probably wouldn't say that if you saw all my fails, though.

Lol, trust me, I've had some good and proper fails. I mean, I tend to be negative and label most things a fail, but there have been some pretty legit ones. I did golden syrup dumplings once that were almost inedible (I say almost cause boyfriend ate it anyway for goodness knows what reason). Same goes for a caramel rice pudding I did - after two hours in the over the rice was still uncooked! Again, boyfriend still ate it.

Lol about the rice pudding, and aww your boyfriend sounds really sweet and supportive!
I guess every artist learns something along the way, and lol, I totally relate, I can't look at my old stuff without cringing! But from what I see, I think you're very accomplished in food art and even your 'fails' will look good from a regular person's point of view.

I think it's mainly because he hates to waste food lol. But he is very sweet and supportive. Too sweet sometimes!

Without failures we won't grow and learn as artists. I'm completely self-taught, so everything up to know if just a product of lots of trials and errors previously. I appreciate your kind words! I very much don't feel accomplished haha.

Haha too sweet is good, trust me!
And that is so true - we do learn so much from trial and error. Be proud of yourself whichever stage you're in! You definitely have much to celebrate.

I guess it's better than the other way around! But by too sweet, I mean that he often (read: never) puts his own interests first.

Well thanks. I'm really terrible at accepting compliments, but I do appreciate your kind words and your enthusiasm.

It's just crushed up oreos in the icing. xD

We don't have peanut butter cups over here. I make something similar sometimes, but I fill them with caramel.

I'm jealous. I wanna go there. is it true there are spiders out there as big as house cats? ....... . . .

Haha. Nah, the largest spider in the world has a leg span of 30cm and is found an Laos. Our biggest spider is the whistling spider, with a leg span of 16cm. That only lives in the rainforests of Queensland and is a fairly shy species. They usually stay in their burrows, only leaving briefly to hunt, and even then they wont move far. Their bites are non-fatal.

The biggest spiders I frequently see are hunstmans, and they're harmless (unless you're allergic, of course). Have seen wolf spiders in the bush, but never in suburbia.

Haha, well I guess I do. xD I don't have the super bogan accent like you probably mostly hear on TV, nor the nasally accent you find more in South Aus. Melburnian accent is pretty plain.

hahaha I have an accent like a 'southern' person. If you watch shows where they have 'hicks' or 'white trash' thats kind of the accent I have. My family is from the southern U.S. so they carried it north with them lol

Haha. My dad always tries to imitate that accent and does the worst job of it in the world.
