We had a great visit
with the in-laws, despite their new found health food thing. I'm not just talking about healthy eating (because they did that before),
I'm talking a judge-y, "everything in your pantry is poison, you need to buy
organic" thing. It was slightly
painful, but its all good because its over.
Truth be told, so far for most people, its not an attainable lifestyle
due to the cost of purchasing all organic stuff. I do pretty good as far as healthy food is
concerned for my family, so I'm not too worried about it.
And now I push on
through to finals so that I can pass this class and move on with my peeps into
my Peds/OB semester. I'm ready. I got an A for this year's clinical
experience and my clinical instructor said she would love to have me as a
co-worker when I finish school. I
absolutely love that patient and nurse population and would be ever so happy to
be there. I think I just might end up an
oncology nurse after all.
Things I'm a be
cookin' when school's out:
Gingerbread cakes
(soft, thick gingerbread cutout cookies)...no recipe to post yet, sorry.
Gingerbread biscotti
(this was a huge hit when Aunt Sissy came to visit)...digging up recipe.
Rugelah: Shortbread rolled up with nuts,
raisins, cinnamon and raw sugar inside…gotta find a new recipe though, because
Ina's dough just falls apart and that makes me insane.
Peanut Butter Blossoms - Peanut butter
cookies with a Hershey kiss on top. I
may do a variation with chocolate dough and a Peanut butter or white chocolate
kiss on top.
Sirupsnitter - thin, crispy almond cookies
of Norwegian origin. I've almost made
these so many times but end up bailing due to some of the steps. Going to suck it up this year.
Victorian Currant Cakes - sweet cookies
with rum soaked raisins, cinnamon and nutmeg.
I'm always looking for new recipes, so please share!
