first christmas.
Love me some Peppernuts. And my grandma that so faithfully makes them EVERY Christmas. All 11+ cookies sheets of them. By hand. And my favorite handmade bowl from Orvieto, Italy. Okay, so here's the recipe. P.S. this makes 7 POUNDS of cookies and they get better each day.
2 cups butter
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 3/4 cup Karo syrup
1 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. ginger
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking powder
8 cups flour
Preheat oven to 350. Combine all ingredients in order in a large tub. (Seriously, do it in a LARGE TUB) Cut out cookies and bake for 10 minutes on a lightly greased sheet.
New family tradition. Ready, set, GO.
I've also enjoyed being at home watching the unique sandwiches my husband makes for lunch with what the have in the house. The more we live together, the more I feel like we live in an episode on Food Network. Lately, I feel like it has been Chopped - using whatever we have to make lunch or dinner. Colin made his sandwich with some turkey, cheese, bacon, egg, and a Sriracha Mayo. Onesie was closeby to keep a watch for any stray crumbs. He loves his Colin.
We are heading out tomorrow for two of our great friends' WEDDING! We are so excited for Sean and Mallory (future Dougherty family!!) and are thankful for their friendship. Marriage is such a blessing.
Speaking of blessings...
