I’ve been feeling totally overwhelmed by the brief the cookie season this year, contrasting against other years when I had more done by this date, and even two weekends in cookie season without one of them being Thanksgiving. Then some phrases started creeping into my mind, like, “Maybe I can skip the pine nut macaroons this year and make them for Passover”, and “I think I won’t do the almond-hazelnut biscotti“. And then I started thinking about party food, and that helped a lot too.
Anyways, last night, Wednesday, I baked all the slice & bakes. I made the cranberry-pistachio and windmill cookie doughs on Tuesday night, after class – didn’t bake anything at all. I made the world peace on Wednesday morning, after the kitties yearly visit from the house call vet. Below’s what they all look like. I should’ve carried them upstairs for better light – the world peace are blue and the cranberry pistachio are blurry.
