Thanksgiving Thursday

 

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  I just spent a quiet day with my husband and pooch hiking in Solstice Canyon, baking gluten-free white chocolate and macadamia cookies, watching old movies on netflix and cooking a scrumptious dinner of duck breast in plum sauce with garlic mash and string beans.  I love my days with my little family.

Friday Bake Day

When I was in Australia I picked up a copy of The Australian Women's Weekly "little squares and slices".  The book was so pretty and filled with such delightful recipes I just had to buy it (even though I'm not much of a baker).  And so,  today I gave it a go and made a Strawberry and Almond Friand.  And it is DELICIOUS! Woot woot!
