What do you think keeps lumber jacks so warm. Their beards!

So I had my impacted wisdom teeth removed. And I have to use heat packs. The rectangular one I have that’s also an ice bag didn’t work very well it was too small and clumsy so here is the heating beard for me!

Decorated cookies right out of the oven

Jessica — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 18:00:53 +0000

Want to know an easy way to get fancy decorated cookies directly out of the oven, no waiting for cooling or fussing with a piping bag!

Easy two ingredients

Turbinado sugar
Edible gold dust(found at michaels crafts or Williams Sonoma, possibly other kitchen stores as well)

Mix 1/8 teaspoon gold dust with
1/2 cup of turbinado sugar

Mix until all sugar is coated in dust

Next using whatever recipe you like

I used
http://bakingwithsneakers.com/blogs/intheoven/2010/12/14/new-favorite-gingerbread-recipe/

Take your cut out cookies and slightly press into the sugar( I found it easiest to work with by putting the mixed sugar on a plate)

Now you just place cookies sugar side up on your pan for baking
Once pan is full,bake for allotted amount of time that your recipe calls for and voila! Decorated cookies!!

Spicy Pimm’s winter

One part Pimm’s no. 1
3 parts spiced apple ginger beer

Apple cider would also probably be delicious. I really like the bite from the ginger though.

Maybe if you don’t have that delicious apple ginger beer, you could use spiced apple cider and put a large slice of ginger in the glass!

It’s not totally organized ,but, I am very excited that it’s not all in a large cardboard box anymore. Moving is great, unpacking- not so much

Finally finished
