12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 9

Happy New Year! Don’t worry–I didn’t have so much champers last night/this morning to forget that I owe you a cookie recipe. I also knew I should get this done before I start my NYD black eye peas and full day of lounging on the couch, working my way through last night’s left overs (you … Continue reading 12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 9

12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 8

You know, I always wondered when you got 8 maids a’milking, did that include the cows? Or was it just the maidens and you had to supply the cows (or goats or sheep or almonds or whatever you wanted to milk)? Regardless of what kind you enjoy, today’s cookie is delicious with milk.

12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 7

Okay, okay…I have to admit that of all the birds in this song, the swans are the ones I would happily accept. Never mind the fact that living in NYC, I don’t have a pond nor the space to build one big enough for seven of them! The next best solution? Cookies!

12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 6

Happy Boxing Day! The brief hiatus in cookies was brought to you by “holy shit, I gotta finishing shopping/wrapping/baking/shipping/cleaning for Christmas.” And yesterday there was completely too much rum cake consumption and watching movies napping. But I feel like I’m still on track to get you all the recipes by Epiphany and chalk up my … Continue reading 12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 6

12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 3

On the 3rd day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…bikkies. Which is Australian for biscuits, or as the heathen Yanks call them: cookies. Today’s cookie is the ANZAC Bikkie, which is probably not a traditional Christmas cookie, but they’re delicious and now that I have a new oven, I’m actually able to make … Continue reading 12 Cookies of Christmas, Day 3

Gobble Gobble & A Whole Lotta Thanks

Did you know that Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday?  Well, it is.  It used to be Halloween, but living in NYC has ruined that for me for reasons too numerous to count.  But Thanksgiving…well, it’s all about the food, taking time to thankful, and celebrating family & friends.

Sunday Comics: Happy, Uh, New Year!

Happy New Year! Yes, I know that January is nearly over.  But it’s not yet–so I have a few more days before wishing someone a Happy New Year because my procrastination is in full swing becomes embarrassing (and even when it is embarrassing, I just drink more and ignore it). You gotta love friends:  I … Continue reading Sunday Comics: Happy, Uh, New Year!

Chalkboard Art: Santa

New York City streets are filled with a lot of things: people, dogs, trash, mysterious things you’re better off not knowing what they are…but my favorite things NYC sidewalks offer are Chalkboard Art. Merry Christmas! Continue reading Chalkboard Art: Santa

The countdown is on to what has become over the years my favorite holiday: Thanksgiving.  I mean, how do you not love a holiday dedicated to food and family and friends and football?!?!?
