'Tis the season for making lots of cookies and candies, so what has
Emily of Yarn Miracle gone and done? She's designed The Great Cookie Swap of '08. It's a virtual cookie recipe swap, but that's not all; there may be prizes! Can you say, "WOW!"? I can, and I've entered
my Turtle Recipe/Tutorial in the swap.

The swap is open to all so feel free to
go enter your own pictures and recipes here, Y'all. I love new recipes so I can't wait to see all the entries.
I tried a new old-fashion recipe this week, Candied Citrus Peel from Martha Stewart Living. I had picked up the December magazine to read on the plane trip to Texas and was pleasantly surprised to find I liked several things in the issue. (So tell me, when did the magazine get back on track with real people stuff again?) Here are the peels in a bath of sugar and water.

All sugared up and quite tasty, not to mention a veritable treasure trove of vitamin C.

Just a little knitting...I'm back on track myself makin' a li'l somethin' for a li'l someone on my list. :)

Have a great weekend, Y'all!
