I am in a funk, a rut. Having a serious lazy bout. A bit blasé. Even a touch melancholy. Whatever you call it, I am in it. My get up and go is gone. This happens from time to time ( to everyone, I think. I hope.) and this time around it is becauseContinue reading “Coconut Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies”

Chai Sugar Cookies
Wanna know something crazy? With all this warm weather and blinding sunshine, I should be craving grilled foods and fresh fruit, right? But I am still craving cold and rainy weather food. I am also craving those cold and rainy days, but that is nothing new – that is just how I am wired. Fair skin andContinue reading “Chai Sugar Cookies”
Chocolate Meringues
My birthday is coming up, which means…. One, I have to figure out what dessert I will be making for myself. I am thinking brownie/cookie/coffee ice cream cake? With hot fudge sauce? It’ll be in cake form, but not cake at all. Or maybe Key Lime pie. Good thing I have a few days to decide. Continue reading “Chocolate Meringues”
Chocolate Espresso Bean Shortbread Cookies
Coffee. I am addicted. I am totally cool with it. Just coffee, plain ol’ drip coffee…coffee snob, I am not. Snobs are no fun and make other people feel like crap. I try not to make people feel like crap. No one deserves that, especially when they are just trying to enjoy a cup of coffee.Continue reading “Chocolate Espresso Bean Shortbread Cookies”
Lemon Cookies…it’s a small thing.
It’s the little things in life … Little things, simple things… that occur every day. They (whoever they are…) say it’s the secret to happiness…enjoying the little things. And I agree…completely and whole heartedly. A day can be made great by noticing the small things. Big, grandious things are awesome, don’t get me wrong…. But let’s get real,Continue reading “Lemon Cookies…it’s a small thing.”
Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
If you learn nothing else this day, week, month, year…learn to brown butter. You will thank me. Once you learn to brown butter, learn moderation or you might need larger pants and Lipitor. True fact. The perk to browning butter (besides the awesome nutty carmel flavor) … it gives you a chance to practice patience. Continue reading “Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies”
Chocolate Walnut Biscotti
Happy Monday! I made cookies. Cookies to be enjoyed with coffee. And on Mondays, coffee is essential. But if you are like me, coffee is essential each and every day…(as are cookies!) Not because you need the jolt of caffeine to get you going in the morning or through the dreaded afternoon lag…but because you truly enjoy theContinue reading “Chocolate Walnut Biscotti”
Shortbread Cookies…the Finale
My little brother, who by the way is no longer little and who looks alarmingly like my older brother is a man of few words. He is not the talkative one of the bunch…I’d probably take that crown, as grandpa always said, my mouth was constantly motoring. However, when James talks he 1) gets his point acrossContinue reading “Shortbread Cookies…the Finale”
Chewy Toffee Chip Cookies
I had to break out my tool box for these cookies. My literal tool box. It is orange. I wish it were blue or maybe green. And it’s about yea big. It sits on the floor of my pantry. Just in case I need it. Ya know for all those big projects I have goingContinue reading “Chewy Toffee Chip Cookies”
Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
I am writing this from my living room floor, sitting ever so close to the fireplace. It is not even 5pm and it is already reaching dusk. Sadly, it has looked like dusk since sunrise this morning. Winter in Cleveland is something one has to get used to. Beyond the snow accumulation, the amount of overcast daysContinue reading “Chocolate Crinkle Cookies”
