I am currently taking a break from baking and decorating cookies for 13 cookie bouquets for my realtor. I am sitting here looking at my dining room and kitchen and there is no surface visible because of the cookies. Not to mention there are a million boxes all over due to us planning on moving soon but it was put off a month . I am beat and I still have more to do.. I had to come on here and share knowing you all would understand Ok, I am now off to unbury my kitchen (or at least try to find a part f it ). Have a good night!

Happy hunting!

Yeah, good luck with that--it should be a real adventure!

Well by now I hope you found your kitchen. I can relate, due to the fact I have been baking for days, up late every night (4 hours of sleep), but now I can finally go to be early tonight after I decorate the tree. My daughter brought the goodies/baked goods to school for her friends today.

That last cake I did I worked on for several days. I TRASHED my kitchen and I cleaned it all up and decided from now on I will only work "cleanly"... I started cookies last night and actually cleaned up between steps and my kitchen actually looks decent this morning. I'm so proud of myself!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets a trashed kitchen.
I don't understand how it could be completely clean, and then 2 hours later, it's like a tornado hit it. UGH!!!

That is when I think about hanging it up! I sooo hate the cleaning part.

Yes Yes!! I am buried under homemade marshmallows waiting to be dipped in chocolate, royal icing snowflakes and a cake waiting to be frosted for bunco tonight! Good Luck!!! I feel your pain!

cakecre8tor, how do you make homemade marshmellows?

I know the feeling-just finished making the fbt for my dd's cupcake cake for tomorrow. Why I had a december baby when there's all this christmas baking I haven't even started yet I'll never know LOL. This is cake number three for her birthday and then it's christmas stuff!!!
I love homemade marshmallows but not sure if I have time to make them

who is off to finish frosting the cupcake cake, clean up and then start sugar cookies

i woke up this morning and walk down to my kitchen and almost had a heart attack... i was up until 1 am putting the finishing touches to my holiday cakes and was too tired to clean anything... it should be a joy trying to make any kind of dinner tonight after work...

hahahaha! Thanks for a great topic! I don't feel so bad now. My kitchen always seems coated with powered sugar!

Happy baking!

After the last cake baking/decorating extravaganza DH came out to the kitchen as I was putting the final touch on the cake, he called our son out and declared that he was going to build a 'special cake room' just for Mommy so that they could find the real kitchen. I guess I'm a messy marvin when I bake. But isn't that part of the fun??
