What I'm Reading This Week #26
Well you made it to Friday! I don't know where y'all are but unless you were near Glacier National Park that got snow this week, you were probably boiling in your own pudding to quote Charles Dickens. I do not dig 90 degrees by noon and it feels like everything is frying left and right including us. Most of the week I had the 50% shade cloths on the veggies to attempt to save as much as I can. I need to get the next batch of lettuce in the shade planter to see if I can successfully grow there over the summer since it never gets direct sun. I told the Mr the other day I feel like nothing is in the right place back there. I have a lot of containers and I don't know if I need to put some of them on a little ledge since the 5 gallon buckets take up so much room or not. The zinnias being in a long planter on the fence were a mistake but they were only put there because I had so many extras and didn't want to chuck them. I have a few struggling...
These are soooo awesome! I love eggnog and these cookies capture the essence of that holiday flavor perfectly. One of my co-workers liked these so much that he asked for the recipe and had his wife make more for him the next day!
ReplyDeleteThey are SOOOO good! I'm so glad I found them and if you pick up some of that egg nog from TJ's I might make you a batch. :)
DeleteI think this may be my favorite of the year too. I'm firmly in the eggnog lovers camp, but I buy light eggnog and then cut it with skim milk. The idea of that flavor in a cookie makes me really happy. Plus this year I found light, pumpkin spice flavored eggnog so I'll totally be trying a batch with that.
ReplyDeleteYou'll thank me later! :)
DeleteHmm..not a fan of eggnog but might have to try these for the nutritional value...83 calories for a cookie..heaven!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely and I think you'll actually like the taste. More nutmeggy than anything.
DeleteLOVE eggnog. I'm a junkie thats why I stay away! I never really knew there were people who didn't like it ;) I'm not a baker, but you're inspiring me! Thanks again for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYay! I hope you make 'em, they yummy!
DeleteI am in that camp with you, sister. I can't stand the thought of drinking the stuff, but eggnog flavored cookies? YES PLEASE!
ReplyDeleteExactly! I'm hungry now!
DeleteI am definitely a NON-egg nog lover. Can't stand the oopy, goopy stuff! I'm a bit too skittish to try the enhanced stuff too :/
