So this morning we slept in. It’s still black dark at 7:00 AM – can’t wait for daylight savings to end, but I guess it’s only another week. I thought I’d be able to get a little work in before breakfast but by the time I fed the cats, and brought in the newspapers, and […]
I made leek tart for brunch today – more or less this Molly Wizenberg recipe; I, as always, used my own pie dough recipe: For single crust: 1 1/2 cups flour pinch salt (or use salted butter) scant TBLS sugar 8 TBLS (1 stick) unsalted butter 1 TBLS vegetable shortening 3 – 4 TBLS […]
