On Saturday I had a yard sale. I made a total of $11 all day, and spent over $20 on ingredients for baked goods at the sale. Classic. It was an exciting day, though. Ellen, Lindsay and LB and I sat on the front porch reading celebrity gossip and catching up on the lives of Brit-Brit and Lil' Lohan. Have you ever seen Britney Spears stoned?? Priceless!
Oh, back to food. Ok. I made three things: Almond Lemon Scones, Blueberry Muffin Tops and Fresh Fruit Pizza. The scones are kind of my staple by now. So easy to make and so delicious. The Fresh Fruit Pizza was also not new. I made it for a BBQ at Lindsay's once, but it was much better then. I tried making it in a pie dish this time which caused the crust to be way too thick and the egg, sugar, butter sauce on top to be way too thick and runny. Not very appealing, although it looked beautiful with the plum around the edge.
The Blueberry Muffin tops were new and, honestly, nothing that exciting either. I ran out of sugar going into this one and had to substitute a mixture of brown and powdered. This never really works but I always make myself believe that it will. They weren't bad by any means, just nothing special. Which is too bad because the blueberries were AMAZINGLY good.
I'll be making the fruit pizza again, as well as the scones. But next time I have blueberries I'm trying something else. So long Muffin Tops!
