    Last week I was so occupied with making edible holiday gifts I barely had time to cook from AMFT! Luckily, the glazed carrots were easy. Tempting to eat the whole batch for breakfast!

      My poor tech support person (AKA Christmas Nibbler) has finally fixed an error that has been plaguing my blog. It should be working now. If you are having trouble leaving a comment, please leave a reply here. Thanks.

    Holiday fun in the kitchen with Speculoos and Sweet and Spice Cocktail Nuts. Both are fabulous recipes that will go into my permanent file! Also great for Christmas gifts.

    Since you asked … haven’t started a menu and haven’t done a single bit of shopping. Too hard to help Santa with three observant littles ones always with me … maybe it’s time to get a babysitter.

    The carrots were a hit at our house!

      Oh, and to be honest, no shopping, though I’m pretty sure the basics of the Christmas menu… but which extra thing to add…??

  46. tammycirceo December 17, 2010 at 8:10 PM #

    We tried Dorie’s version of a staple at our house: Leek and Potato Soup. It was very good!

    Nana gets extra credit points for baking this week. She tackled not only the Speculoos (which we found out had been the exact lovely little cookies we kept getting served with our coffee in Paris….) but could not avoid the siren of the Breton cookies at this time of year. Breton cake had been a holiday family favorite so she put Dorie’s recipe on the Christmas menu and it did not disappoint.

    Sorry I’m a little late! I’ve had a busy week with the holidays coming up! I made the soup and topped it with chives and parmesan.

    I fought mightily and brought back my muse. I made the Sweet and Spicy nuts, which disappeared in a second! I made sure to separate them one by one, and it was so worth it!
    I cannot tell you how happy I am to have joined this group!

    A request?…

    Would you kindly let us know what our recipes are/order is – this weekend (Friday, even)? It’s so much easier if I know the weekend prior, so that I can plan… and maybe even make my recipe when I have a bit more time.

    Thanks!!!

    (fyi, this has been a huge amount of fun!!)
