Recap of Boswell signing, MKE’s Vegan Cookies segment, and Riverwest Co-op signing this weekend!

MoFo is over (just in time for my finals) so this blog will be getting a little more love (and updates!) like SBYM got throughout November. Thanksgiving break was absolutely crazy!

These homemade fortune cookies and pirouettes (“flute cookies”) hold their shape while cooling by resting on a champagne glass.

It’s been a while… [recipe]

I’ve neglected the cookie blog for way too long and I apologize! I’ve been really busy with lots of recipe making (which will be done in less than a month, by the way). The next step after that will be finding a publisher and creating this book! It’s all quite overwhelming, so if anyone has …

Fruity: Chewy Banana Cookies, Pumpkin Spice, Blueberry. And some PB Grahams
