as promised in my last post, here’s the recipe for sourdough bread!
i am feeling pretty darn homesick for california these days. i don’t know if it’s because i have more time to think while prepping for my last final (because two of my classes are DONE!!). or maybe it’s because we aren’t going back to california for spring break. or perhaps it’s because we’re missing two of our closest friends’ 30th bdays (happy birthday, jamie and tyler!!), and we’re also missing both of our dads’ birthdays (happy birthday, chuck and dad!).
ok, so i know i’ve been complaining a lot about chard and all the greens we’ve been getting in our csa box, but we have another csa box problem: pears.
whew, it’s been a whirlwind couple of weeks! finals are done, one quarter (out of 6) of grad school is complete, we went to victoria on a spur of the moment mini-vacation, then we packed our bags, hopped a flight, and we’re back in ca!
eclaire note: i’m in the middle of final exams right now, but luckily one of my dearest friends offered to share a guest post with you! i’m continually inspired by katie’s cooking and baking, so you’re in for a treat, dear readers. enjoy!
Hi my fellow eclaire readers. As a long time friend of Emilie’s and a reader of her blog, I thought since Emilie is in the midst of finals and I was making my favorite holiday cookies now would be a good time for a guest post. These seven layer (rainbow) cookies are my favorite holiday cookies because they meet all my requirements for a great holiday cookie:
- They are a little labor intensive so you won’t make them year round
- Not everyone makes them
- They taste great
- They look festive
