Buddy Activities

 On Monday our teacher told us to pick a buddy or 2 and choose an activity to do over lockdown. I decided to do cooking. She told me she was already making meringues so I thought I would do them with her. When we got all the ingredients out I realised I didn't have cream tar tar. I searched up what could replace cream tar tar and we got lemon juice and baking soda. I decided to go with baking soda because that seemed like the right thing. 

We started by separating the egg whites and whisking them until they were stiff. That took about 20 minutes and a LOT of complaining. After that we put in the caster sugar, icing sugar and baking soda then whisked again. When I put it on the tray it went everywhere I had to get help from my mum because I was useless at it. We put it in the oven and set the timer to 55 minutes, while we waited we cleaned up our kitchens. When they came out Jorgia and I zoomed so we could get each others reactions. As soon as I tasted it I wanted to throw up. It only tasted like baking soda.

Afterwards I asked her if she wanted to bake chocolate chip cookies but it turned out she had no butter so I just did it. Making them was but faster than the meringues, by the time I had put them in the oven I would've still been whisking the meringues. I took them out of the oven and waited for them to cool then tried them. My parents thought they tasted delicious and so did I!

Here are some of the pictures of the baking
