Well, time to revisit the homebaked goodies again!
My sister asked if the people to whom I gave homebaked gifts really like the stuff I bake... I guess the answer is YES!...
I´ve received 2 requests to bake some more!
1. from a woman from the office. I gave a couple alfajores to the people I have lunch with and, one of them shared with this other co-worker and, she came to ask if I could bake her 40 alfajores for her church group (10 bags of 4).
2. from óne of Ale's teachers, who asked Ale where we had bought the "delicious brownies" we gifted her, as she wanted to buy some for her boyfriend's birthday!
I have agreed to do both, but, asked them to please not spread the word as, really, I wouldn't have time to do this continually (it distracts from my translating... the alfajores, especially, the brownies are quick to mix, then they go into the oven and I can translate for about 40 minutes before taking them out of the oven!) I really couldn't do this ADDITIONALLY to the translations. I am just doing it as a favor and, since they didn't want to accept them as gifts, I'll charge them at cost (don't worry, I include gas/electricity and labor, I just don't make a profit!).
I just finished the brownies, the alfajores are for Friday...
Did I mention Ale wants me to knit her a hat?? I need 2 more pais of hands! LOL!
Do your friends really like that? -- 3!
