wiseheart... and I've already baked two batches of cookies. One of them is a new recipe:
At first I was suspicious because every time they tell me on YouTube how easy the recipe is, it's either way more complicated or total crap. But this time I was pleasantly surprised. My version has two cookies glued together with melted chocolate and decorated a bit with the same, but I basically followed the video - save that I worked with a wooden spoon instead of a mixer.
The other recipe is an old one, also with chocolate and peanut butter, but I replaced the flour with ground peanuts for my friend Evie who'd developed a gluten intolerance lately.
I also finished the cooking I had started yesterday, added boiled Spätzle to my dish and making a mixed salad. Plus, I had to take down and put away the dried washing, so there really wasn't much time for anything else.
H. sent an e-mail from Germany; she's at home right now, visiting her siblings and celebrating her 70th birthday. They apparently have a good time, which she more than deserves. Her side of the family is very pleasant.
