I’ve been wanting a nice camera for a few years and finally took the plunge in November. I’ve been doing some research through blogs I’ve found to discover how to take good photos on the correct setting and not just “auto”. Happily, I got to try out my new baby in Austin!
Here are some of the pictures I took. I’m learning!
I am happy to say that I’ve put a bit of a dent in my endless pins. February was a successful recipe experimenting month. The recipe I ended the month on was Horchata.
The insane Texas weather was wonderful and warm this weekend, so I wanted to try a cool drink. I’ve had a Horchata once in Austin and look back on it as a tasty and refreshing experience. I did some research and chose Martha Stewart’s quick and easy version as my first attempt.
Simmering Milk and Cinnamon
If you love milkshakes and cinnamon, this is perfect for you. I used one cup less milk than the recipe and it was still amazingly thick and overwhelmingly sweet.
Horchata in my Prancing Pony Cup
In the future, I want to use less milk and more water and possibly half of the condensed milk the recipe calls for. But mark my words, I will be making this again. Indeed.
