So, how’s everyone doing with their New Year’s resolutions?  While I sincerely wish you all the best in your endeavours, I can’t say I commiserate.  I’ve resolved to no longer make New Year’s resolutions.  Because really, things that seem like such a great idea at

So we’re finally in the week before Christmas, a.k.a. prime cookie-baking time.  I have to say, I’m quite impressed with the amount of sweets-making and cookie-baking that has been taking place up until now in my house.  Also, I think anyone would be impressed with the

Every year, I tell myself that instead of heading out to the mall, or knocking out half my Christmas wish list on Amazon, I’m going to spend my time making delicious homemade gifts for my family and friends.  And every year, I start with good

There’s no denying it now.  Summer is coming to a close.  My morning drive to work is slowed down by school buses, I have more ripe tomatoes than I know what to do with, and most of the time, I can turn off the a/c

Hey, you there.  You like cookies?  You like chocolate?  Of course you do.  Who doesn’t? Well, ok, some people don’t. But even people who aren’t big “chocolate people” (ahem, me) or “cookie people” (me again) will be fairly smitten by this cookie.  Let me just
