Cream together butter and sugar...

Here is my text:

Esmarelda and Jenny were thumbing through the latest edition of Sju sorters kakor (Swedish Cakes and Cookies), when Jenny squeeled, 'I know, we could bake our way through these recipes, and blog about it!'
'Been done', replied Esmarelda, 'Remember the movie, Julie & Julia? And Sju sorters kakor is even translated as Swedish Cakes and Cookies, so we can't even do that.'
'Yeah, I'm with you!'

Word Count: 92 +5 = 97

I'm with you too! Cute tale, and a great idea, maybe I'll go bake something. :)
Great little story..I didn't realise it was so many words when I read it...Like the look of the cook book too!!
Fun take on the prompt.
I just sent you an e-mail telling you I couldn't leave a comment and now your blog is giving me permission!
At the risk of repeating myself, I hope you're feeling better and I wanted you to know I think your micro-fiction is stellar.
You have a way of taking us in a direction we hadn't planned on going...
...and loving the journey every word of the way.
