I'm constantly humming Christmas carols, there's always something green or red in my daily outfits, I start re-watching films like The Santa Clause, Love Actually, The Holiday, Home Alone, Elf, and Scrooged. I start reading lists of things that happened in 2011 on the internet, laugh at some of them, wrinkle my nose and sniff … Continue reading Green Tea Chocolate Chip cookies

I wasn't up for adding frosting, especially considering these cookies are just so delicious when plain. I whipped up two batches that day, and I have to say that mixing this … Continue reading Amanda’s Sugar Cookies

I thought I'd do something special and bake her some cookies instead. And stuff them in a pretty jar. Which I now want to … Continue reading Roll-Out Sugar Cookies
I can practically hear the introduction music to an epic film as I type up this post, even as I look over my computer screen at the container of Inception Cookies. A colleague made a comment to me earlier, as she broke one of those MegaCookies in half, "It takes a special brand of crazy … Continue reading The Inception Cookie

I recently tried my hand at baking cookies, and so I finally decided to give my favourite cookies a shot. Raisin oatmeal cookies! I used to just buy store-bought cookies (ie Famous Amos) but a colleague told me a horror story of how she saw a worker carrying a shipment of those cookies dropped a … Continue reading Raisin Oatmeal Cookies
