Soft and Chewy Chocolate Mint Cookies

December 22, 2011

So maybe I’m on a chocolate mint kick this year. Okay, who am I kidding, I’ve been on a chocolate mint kick my entire life. I blame it on my dad. When I was a kid, we used to get a peppermint patty every time we went to the gas station. We drove around A [...]

This weekend was the seventh edition of the Ratskellar Holiday Party, our big annual celebration of the holidays, good cheer, and friends. It’s hard to believe that we’ve lived in this house long enough to have SEVEN holiday parties here. How did that happen?

Will you forgive me for sharing 2 brownie recipes in a year that is barely 2 months old? Well, I guess you’ll have to, or you’ll have to click away. I stumbled on this recipe completely by accident. Last fall–I think it was actually after the Veterans Day 10K–I was in the mood for something [...]

Twas the week before Christmas and all through the house… Pandora was playing Christmas music–it must be cookie baking time! This year, thanks to our weekend in Florida, my annual cookiepalooza in preparation for the Ratskellar Christmas Party was seriously condensed. To one day. Yikes!

After a week and a half on the road I was so happy to be home this weekend. A weekend of Christmas decorating and cooking was definitely in order! Noel was nice enough to come out and visit me one night while I was in West Virginia, so I wanted to do something nice for [...]
