I ...Hi Jamie,<BR/>I discovered something new about you. I kind of imagined that you were all about going out into the world and doing NIA. What a surprise to find you baking and cooking. <BR/><BR/>I really agree that cooking has a magical quality. It is almost medicinal. I'm impressed that you cooked for your family at such a young age. <BR/><BR/>There are some wonderful movies about cooking. Maybe you could have your own film festival. I recommned "Babette's Feast."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20657622.post-1165290447913681782006-12-04T22:47:00.000-05:002006-12-04T22:47:00.000-05:00"Cooking together feels like family.

They came out very good, and they were really easy. It was my first time making them, and since my mom had just given me a really cute shortbread pan I thought I'd give it a try. I just posted a recipe today for the cookies I made yesterday, and many more will come. This is the ONLY time of year I make cookies, and I really overdo it!Laini Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14064837312936707024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20657622.post-1165255715584813582006-12-04T13:08:00.000-05:002006-12-04T13:08:00.000-05:00How wonderful, I adore this post and can really un...How wonderful, I adore this post and can really understand what you are conveying Jamie. For years cooking was just a pain but once you get into it, it's all about transformation. Baking is especially like that! It's all magic and love, combined which is a beautiful thing. I agree about Mom's soup, how does she do that? I've never made a soup that comes close to hers. That reminds me, I'd love to have that coffee shortbread recipe you used to make, it's one of my favourite things in the world.<BR/><BR/>You used to feed us beautiful food Jamie, always tasty with an element of fun. That is a true gift. Thank you Jamie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20657622.post-1165202820555394242006-12-03T22:27:00.000-05:002006-12-03T22:27:00.000-05:00oooh...snow! lucky girl.
