Tuesday Tea

It's actually Tuesday Coffee for me this morning  :)   need that zap to get me going!
I've just finished reading this book written by my friend Susan.  It's about a woman who walked from New York to Siberia, travelling through Canada on up to Alaska....all on foot to reach her home.  I loved the book and it ended all too soon!


Some of the baking I've done the past few days.  Things are all packaged up.....and yes I sampled a couple  :)  My shortbread, almond florentines and raison ginger cookies.




I'm making another batch of shortbread and that will be enough  :) 

Thanks for stopping by and please check out Kimmies site at http://artinredwagons.blogspot.com/ to see what everyone's up to today  :)

  1. Oh Nancy! I can almost taste those cookies. And I can only imagine what the shortbread will taste like, because I love it all. It all looks so inviting and delicious, too. I always love thumbprint cookies. Have an awesome tea today!

  3. I tried to make shortbread tonight to take to a friend I am seeing for lunch tomorrow but I left it in the oven too long. So it is toasted shortbread. :/ Not quite as tasty. All your baking looks wonderful. And the book certainly sounds interesting. Have a great rest of the week. Tammy
