Well, here is the first batch of test cookies for Christmas this season... Noticed that I messed up a little the consistency of the border icing (too stiff). Better luck next time :)

Acá está la tanda siguiente. Para lograr la estrella nevada tienen que hacer el primer bañado, dejarlo secar completamente... qué tan completamente? completamente! por más de que ya tenga la costra hecha, no puede quedar ni un solo poquito de humedad en el baño. Luego hacen el dibujo del copo de nieve con un puntero número 2 y glacé de consistencia media y lo rocían con azúcar, recolectando el que se caiga de las partes secas (si, por eso es tan importante el secado, si no se les pegará azúcar donde no quieren). Y dejenlo secar preferentemente toda la noche.

Listo! Ya tienen hermosas galletitas navideñas :)

Here is the follow-up. To achieve the snowy snowflake cookie you just flood it, let it dry thoroughly then pipe the snowflake on it with medium-consistency royal icing and sprinkle some granulated sugar on it. Collect the sugar that slides off the dry parts. Let cookie dry overnight.

Done! You've got beautiful Christmas cookies!

The Future of Shopping

A tiny preview of what the shopping experience could be like in the future. The most exclusive fashion stores will probably be the first ones to use this. Anyway, I already love it!

Un pequeño preview de cómo podría llegar a ser la experiencia de comprar ropa en el futuro. Seguro que las casas más exclusivas de indumentaria serán las primeras en incorporar este sistema por un tema de precio, practicidad y cantidad de clientes que frecuentan la tienda. ¡Más que práctico y útil!

This doesn't feel right

If you are as big a fan of the TV-series "The Big Bang Theory" as I am you have probably already watched the episode where Penny accidentally shoots the cushion on "Sheldon's spot" with a paint ball gun. To cover it up she turns the cushion around. But when Sheldon sits down he notices that something is wrong with these exact words: "It doesn't feel right".

Have you ever put on a piece of clothing and got this exact same feeling? It captured you when it was displayed on the hanger, but once you jumped into it something was off. But as you just loved the print or whatever it had that captured your attention you buy it. As time passes by you become more and more frustrated with it, because it is to short, or it's to tight, or whatever.

I am starting to understand the importance of figuring out when something it truly worth buying it or not. And when I have finally found that thing that I've been needing for a long time and it fits and it feels great, have the guts to go ahead and buy it.

The link I attached I believe is a good interpratation of that feeling, when you just know that something is right. Well, that is if you are a cat lover like myself :)
