I am always a fan of shortbread. They have just as much sugar as every other cookie, but for some reason always feel a little bit classier. Maybe it’s because they have “Scottish” in the title and, being a large part Scottish myself, I’m just […]
I always make cookies for Christmas. I’m not really much of a sweets person. If I’m going to do something decadent culinary-wise, I’m really more of a cheese person. Hence the Quiche w/ Spinach, Ricotta, Pecans & White Wine and Macaroni & Cheese w/ Gruyère […]
