I am ruined, plain and simple. Let me explain...
I went to a wedding over the weekend where Linda filled the cookie table with delicious treats and made the gorgeous wedding cake. While we waited for the bride and groom to enter the reception we sauntered over to the cookie table and grabbed a couple nibbles.
Peanut butter cookies with chocolate on top, tiny little adorable nut rolls, vanilla Pizzelles, Russian tea cakes, pecan tarts, iced sugar cookies, heart cut out cookies with jam(?), coconut puffs drizzled with fine chocolate, apricot rolls, shortbread cookies with a little berry topping (raspberry Linzer, maybe?), and more were spread out before us!
Everything tasted so amazing! Pecan tarts were perfectly nutty, yet soft and delicious. The Pizzelles were thin, crisp and amazingly yummy (I don't like Anise ones, and these vanilla were fantastic). The iced sugar cookies were melt-in-your-mouth perfection that I didn't want to end. My favorite, however, were the lady locks. These delicate treats are cream-filled wrapped pastries that are a little slice of heaven! And we weren't the only ones who thought that, as the lady locks were the first to disappear off the table.
So now I am ruined. All other cookies just don't stack up to Linda's wonderful creations! We traveled a little over 3 hours to get to the wedding. Lindaz Little Bakery is no where close to where we live. How can I even look at store bought cookies after this? (gasp!) What will I tell my mum!? (panicked) I have no poker face! "Dear Mum, your cookies are 'ok'. "? Ruined. (slowly shakes head and sighs sadly) read more
