I keep forgetting to take pics while making the frosting/icing.

Here is the written word:
Ingredients:
1 cup Powdered Sugar
1 Tbsp Water

Mix. If the frosting isn't "wet" enough add a little bit more water. Once it is the right consistency for you start frosting.

If you would like colors other than white, add a few drops of food coloring to the white frosting. I like to add a small amount of vanilla to the colored frostings (if you add it to white it will get a brown tint!).
