So I was in mood for a little tea party last week. A tea party for me. A nice cup of herbal tea and my favorite English treat – shortbread. I like my shortbread thin and crisp – not thick. You may remember the yummy lemon poppyseed shortbread I shared almost two years ago. It [...]

So is that about the weirdest combination of ingredients you’ve ever heard of for a cookie!?? I sure thought so when my mom brought me the recipe.

So I was wondering why it had been so quiet on the blog the last little bit. I was trying not to take it personally, I figured you were just all busy with Thanksgiving but I discovered yesterday that my rss feed and my email subscription wasn’t working so no one was being notified that [...]
Chocolate Sandwich Cookie

Cookie Day #2 No holiday cookie plate would be complete without some type of chocolate cookie. Don’t you agree? So how about a chocolate sandwich cookie? The one thing I don’t like about sandwich cookies is that when you eat one cookie – you are really eating two cookies. But you only get the enjoyment [...]
