When any of the elements you use – spoon, knife, bowl, cutting board – is beyond boring and ordinary, it adds a jolt of beauty to the experience. "There is a satisfaction that comes with a com...
I really like gingerbread, molasses cookies, gingerbread cookies cut like little people, and my newest addition, which I can't believe I've reached my age and never had it before, cornbread with molasses. What a treat; but if you haven't bought molasses for a while, be prepared for a sticker shock. I'm out of molasses so I didn't get this made, but will soon.

One of the perks of having your older kids home for the holidays, at least around my place, is the ongoing discussion of which movies are worth seeing.
