Taking time away from unpacking boxes for a small package of cookies (no photos of the cookies, uhmmm…just this). The recipes are sooo good, though – thought I would share.
I used this recipe for the sunflower seed butter and jelly cookies. If you clicked on the link, you’ll notice that it is *peanut butter* and jelly. I just mixed it up a little bit. Also, use any kind of preserves you like. I had strawberry-guava on-hand and that’s what I used. Yum.
The lemon ricotta cookies recipe is right here. I didn’t make the glaze, though. So sad, I know. The glaze would have been excellent, but I decided against it. Two reasons: the hot weather and via USPS. Yikes. The glaze would look a little funky, right?
Glaze=no. Cookies=yes.

My “Cousteau” fabric that I recently received from Spoonflower, and the small pillow that I had sewn with it.

Now…back to work!
Our favorite restaurant in the Petaluma area is Namaste Kitchen. The best Indian food ever. We have been ordering the same thing for the last year (or so it seems) – saag paneer, chicken korma, and garlic naan. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it.
This evening, I decided to change things up a bit and cooked my first Indian dish at home. Chicken tikka masala. I used this recipe. It may not be authentic, but it was simple to fix and really, really tasty.
When my husband came home, he said, “it smells like Namaste in here”. Hehe. *grin*
Oh, and I received an another order via Etsy – yay!
On their way to the Netherlands….
I am so happy! I received my first fabric request via Spoonflower. I love that she wants to make aprons and kitchen curtains out of this fabric. What cute ideas!
A spinach smoothie for the warmer months – add one frozen banana, as much spinach as you want, almond milk, and one tablespoon of cocoa powder and blend!
Husband and I took a walk to the local nursery, King’s Nursery, over the weekend. Quickly snapped a few shots of my favorites. Has anybody tried this before?
Swing with the plants made by Droog. I’ll take one for each room, please??
How could I pass up a pancake muffin recipe?!?
I wanted to make this recipe over about a month – okay, two months ago after spotting them via Joy the Baker.
What can I say? I am just a little slow, but it’s worth the wait. You’ll see.
Try them and you will want to thank Joy too!
And please forgive me, but I had to add in the chocolate chips.
Yes, HAD to. Forced, really.
* This recipe will only make a half dozen muffins if you choose to use EuroBake Cups (as shown).
Wishing everyone a very happy holiday season…
…and keep warm (with cocoa and homemade peppermint marshmallows!):
I promise this is the last pumpkin-related post for the rest of the year since Christmas is right around the corner.
You are free for 22 days. Yay!
These were made for our Thanksgiving holiday and I couldn’t help but share this recipe (via Smitten Kitchen) with you. No swirlies, but I added toasted pecan pieces over the top. An afterthought: I should have added dark chocolate chips or chunks into the mix as well. Yum. Maybe next year?!
