I've been busy baking sweets to go in the "Christmas Boxes" I send to family, and yesterday I made some cookies and iced them with royal icing. The icing didn't set - it's still sticky, and whether I put too much water in or it's just too humid, I do not know. But they can't be mailed and I am bereft. The mister, on the other hand, is gleeful and views this as a complete boon - an entire batch of cookies (they taste wonderful!) that he can eat!
