Getting back into the groove of things...
Tonight Craig and I are going to a little potluck get together and since it's a potluck we need to bring something. So I decided to bring a fruit pizza which I have since altered and modifed since the time that I first got the recipe years ago. I'm sure it will go through many more transformations before I get it to just the way I want it. Basically it's an oatmeal cookie type base with coconut mixed in, a sweet cream cheese icing topped with fresh strawberries and kiwi. I'm going to be starting up a little online recipe book on my site soon since I tend to get a lot of requests for these types of things at parties and such. So until then you can just oogle at the photos, either that or you can email me for the recipe.
It would appear I still remember how to do shells, but I figured that since I already had the piping bag out I might as well see if I could still make roses. Result? Meh, they still need a bit of work, that and the icing was a bit soft for making roses even after being chilled oh well, as I used to say to my students, "practice makes perfect".

No no, I'm not selling myself short.
THESE are good roses!
Much larger in size than the one in this post mind you, but those were my glory days. *sigh*
