Chai Spiced Cinnamon Rolls ~ #BreadBakers

These cinnamon rolls are a win-win situation for everyone.  The dough is prepared the night

before, so no getting up at the crack of dawn, just pull them out of the refrigerator in the morning

and in a little over an hour you can have piping hot cinnamon rolls ready to serve. #thiccbuns

Anytime Tarragon-Apricot Cookies ~ #CreativeCookieExchange

 A cookie that is equally at home with a glass of wine as it is with a cup of tea or coffee is 

a recipe that you need to treasure.  That is what I realized when baking these 

Anytime Tarragon-Apricot Cookies.

Chai Spice Girls ~ Creative Cookie Exchange

It is funny how a single photo can bring back a flood of memories. Last weekend I was helping my daughter go through some old photos. She is a senior and is in the process of preparing her dedicated page in the school year book. I picked up one photo where she (and her sisters) had dressed up as the Spice Girls for Halloween, and she was Baby Spice. In the photo she is only three years old, and it is hard to believe that she will be eighteen soon. I still remember getting them ready to Trick or Treat like it was yesterday. It meant a lot to me to be able to sort through photos and explain to her when it was taken and why it was special to me, and I even came across a few photos that I had forgotten I had of me as a baby.  I think it is safe to say that we both had a lot of fun on our trip down memory lane, even if she did think some of her photos were a little embarrassing.
