Again, wow! I can’t believe we are already at the end of this course, and thus the end of my major project. It has been a very busy semester filled with dough and icing. My fiancé has appreciated all the baking popping up every weekend, but I am not sure if my waistline agrees withContinue reading “EC&I 831 – Major Learning Project Summary”

Major Learning Project – Week 9
The time has finally come – my last week of cookie decorating (for this class anyways).

I thoughtContinue reading “Major Learning Project – Week 9”
Major Learning Project – Week 7/8
It is officially the Christmas season! Well, for me anyways. I like to start early. Since our class is almost complete, I decided that I wanted the last two activities of my major learning project to be related to Christmas cookies.

Major Learning Project – Week 2
Before I begin, I would like to mention that I will be using a lot of the same decorating related terminology in each post. When a new term arises, I will do my best to explain it, or add a link. If you are just joining my journey now, feel free to check out thisContinue reading “Major Learning Project – Week 2”
Major Learning Project – Introduction
