this morning chanda worked on writing out the valentine's cards for our family, while i helped morgana with the puppet show preparations.
after reading through the puppet show with her, i said "you know, it would be good to bring some cookies to the children . . " so she whipped up cookie batter from the horn of the moon cookbook: heart cookies made with honey.
the cookie cutter she's using is one she made at strubridge a few summers ago.
butter and honey . .
it's difficult for me not to eat all the batter!
the honey flavor of these cookies is so warming, and then in the summer it feels cool.
all wrapped up . .
and all set to go . .
while i finished baking the rest of the cookies, chanda finished her greek writing in her lesson book and took a picture.
hermione keeps watch from the nature table, which she sort of took over . . (she kept trying to lie on the silks, so we finally gave her a blanket).
chanda's pic of the living room.
i've been inspired by a new cookbook i found in barnes and noble . . i really didn't need another cookbook, but the photos in this one were so beautiful, and the recipes were simple, and the five dollar sale price so inviting, that i bought it.
and this evening i set up the sweet potato recipe for morgana to put together while chanda and i were at her violin lesson.
we had these baked sweet potatoes with fresh thyme leaves and taleggio cheese with the leftover kale, beans and brown rice.
all the hungry ogres at the table devoured it.
ahhh . . a delicious dessert. it's still holiday time . .
