It was a gigantic fail. We didn't have an electric beater, so we were trying to mix the icing by hand, but it was hardening too fast. So, we tried to add a little bit more water, but this kid thought 'a little' meant 'drown it', so then it was way too watery. Then we looked for confectioner's sugar, because you're apparently supposed to add that to thicken it. And we couldn't find any, so instead we used baking soda. It worked okay. At first it didn't taste too bad either, but after a second it got really really salty.
;D ;D ;D
That is so funny! It had me laughing out loud. Chalk it up as a Xmas memory. Baking soda as a sugar substitute.....ROFLOL (confectioner's sugar = icing sugar, the powdery kind)
Thank you for the "jollies" you sent to me today.
