I haven't forgotten that I need to share with you the rest of the photos from Vermont and Rhinebeck, which are now a month+ old. Stop power outage for 4+ days really through things off around Halloween. Never again do I want a snow storm in October!
I've gotten into this little kick of making cookies on the weekends. Well, I've done it two weekends in a row. I know Kevin would like if it became a more regular weekend event. Although it does mean lots of cookies to be consumed (which has its ups [yum!] and downs [fat fat fatty!]). Two weekends ago, I made the margarita cookies from the Martha Stewart cookie app. They included some odd ingredients (rubbed sage!), but came out very yummy.
Last weekends cookies were whalers from "Great Cookies" by Carole Walter. This is my favorite cookie recipe book. I've made a bunch of her cookies and they are all fabulous. I mostly followed the recipe. I omitted the orange zest and only had regular sugar instead of superfine, but they still came out awesome.
They are primarily an egg cookie (if that makes sense)... kinda like a meringue cookie, but with yolks. They have rice crispies in them and white chocolate. So yummy!! I think that I want to try to make them again, but with coconut substituted for some or all of the rice crispies.
