Well, it looks like another year is coming to an end! Christmas is almost here. If you have planned on being with family and friends hopefully the snowy weather hasn't stopped you. If it has, think back on the last few Christmas days we had - or didn't have. You got this!! I hope you [...]
I know what you are thinking! Is there anything this guy won’t add cayenne to?! Well of course there are many things I won’t put cayenne to, but when a recipe inspires me, I have to make it! This is a twist on a NYT cooking recipe and is a nice addition to the sweet [...]
I seem to be more obsessed with warming spices and the tastes and memories they conjure up. Whether it’s a subtle way of acknowledging I’m growing older or not, I am embracing it with open arms. This is one of those cookies I’ve always wanted to make but never got around to. Whether it seemed [...]
Oh how fast the big day is approaching! Still, a thrill seeing all the delicious recipes out there and selecting which ones to share with you. When I saw this recipe I knew I had to try it! I’ve made amaretti before, blogged about it, big big fan of it. But this is different, not [...]

No, it’s not some new hideous dance move for weddings, but it can be served at weddings on a sweet table!

Oh my goodness! The countdown to Christmas and year end is here! Lets get you baking some of these delicious treats! This is a wonderful cookie to make and eat! It has some great flavors of spice and is flavored with olive oil and butter. A great start for your cookie table that you can [...]
Sometimes you just want a no-nonsense cookie. Easy to make, easier to eat and that satisfies that sweet and salty combination of tastes. This is it my friends. I found it in my archives, completely hidden amongst other recipes that weren’t cookie related. Glad I did coz they are delicious and so easy to do. [...]
This is a lovely recipe for a delightful cookie that always reminds me of the walks my girlfriend (relax, she's now my wife) and I would take through the streets of Chinatown!
