I talk briefly about cookies and for 9 minutes about reading in my latest booktube video

https://youtu.be/3L--qo18UVY

MrsMalaprop Hi Lindy. I just watched it. Well done 👍🏼. I don‘t have an account so can‘t like & comment. Maybe you‘ve inspired me to create one though 😙. I love reading your posts on Litsy. I am continually amazed at how much you read 👏. I am happy if I get through a book a week! 3y
Nute Congratulations on your YouTube channel, Lindy! I really enjoy BookTube videos and look forward to viewing yours. I just watched your Newbie Tag video…cute story about when you and your friend first grasped the concept of reading.🙂 3y
Nebklvr Yeah! Loved your chats on Shawn‘s channel. Will definitely check it out 3y

Cathythoughts I watched the first one .. I‘ve bought a pretty little diary and I‘m going to write down every book I read from now on.... something I‘ve never done. I loved your sparkly journals... and the reading out loud together, we used to do that when we were courting.... I think we need to bring it back❤️ 3y
Cathythoughts And, You read a book a day ! Wow. That‘s fair going. If I could read one or one and a half a week , I‘d be happy with that 😁 3y
batsy I didn't know you have a YT channel! That's fab; I'll definitely be checking it out. 3y
Lindy @MrsMalaprop Thanks for watching. It‘s fine to comment about the videos here on Litsy. It took me three years of watching booktube before I created an account and was able to comment there. And I‘m staying on Litsy! I am still seeing double, so I can‘t scroll & read as much as I‘d like right now. 3y
Lindy @Nute Thanks for watching. As you can tell, I love to talk about reading. Do you remember your earliest reading experiences? 3y
Lindy @Nebklvr Thanks for your words of encouragement. Let me know what you think. 😊 3y
Lindy @Cathythoughts Thanks for watching. I‘m delighted to have inspired you to keep a book journal. And I‘m glad to hear about other couples reading aloud to each other. 😊 3y
Lindy @batsy Let me know what you think. If you have a YouTube account, be sure to say hello in the comments over there. 🤗 3y
Simona I don‘t YT account, so I can‘t comment there … but I did watch all of your videos and I really enjoyed listening to you and your bookish stories❣️ 3y
Lindy @Simona Thanks for watching! It took me 3 years of watching booktube before I decided to create an account in order to comment. Soon afterwards… I was creating my own videos. 😊 3y

“Zan‘s Birthday Cookies.” I made another recipe from the tagged cookbook. They were for my sister Zan‘s birthday.

I couldn‘t resist trying one of Dorie Greenspan‘s recipes for cookies made in muffin tins. This one is called Classic Jammers.

Blame it on Dorie Greenspan. I‘ve given away many cookies since I started trying recipes from her cookie book, and I‘ve resorted to making half-batches, but still there are many cookies in this house and so I am forced to eat them for breakfast.

bnp Poor you! 3y
ReadingEnvy I have her new baking cookbook and what have I picked out? More cookies! 3y
Lindy @bnp 😉 3y
Lindy @ReadingEnvy Of course! I haven‘t yet tried one of the recipes for cookies baked in muffin pans, but that‘s next: Classic Jammers. How can I resist making a recipe that came to her in a dream? 3y

Calgary Wordfest‘s final event featured two cookbook authors. Dorie Greenspan talked about surprising people by chopping chocolate into pieces instead of buying chips: the different sizes make every bite of a cookie different. Also, you can use the chocolate you like best. Julie Van Rosendaal talked about Buttergate, the news story she broke after investigating why butter was not softening at room temperature.

Another recipe from the tagged cookbook. “They-Might-Be-Breakfast Cookies” is what Dorie Greenspan calls them. I substituted figs for the apples and raisins, hemp seeds for the wheat germ, ground coriander for cinnamon, and used spruce sugar instead of plain, so I think I can give them my own name: Fig & Spruce Cookies.

I tried a recipe from the tagged book. Leckerli are new to me: a Swiss or Alsatian spice cookie made without butter or eggs. These have candied ginger, dried sour cherries, almonds, nutmeg, cloves, black pepper, and lots of honey.

LeahBergen Yum! 3y
batsy Mmm! How did you like it? Wondering what's the texture like without butter and eggs? 3y
Lindy @LeahBergen @batsy I really like them. The texture is soft but chewy, sort of like nougat. 3y
batsy @Lindy That sounds delicious! 3y

I forgot to mention something very, VERY important in my #basicwitchswap survey: I‘m a cookie *fiend.* 😍

Here are some of my favorites (anyone else a fan of the criminally underrated hermit cookie?)! 🤤

BookmarkTavern Those look delicious! What is a hermit cookie? I‘ve never heard of that kind before. 5y
monalyisha @chaoticgoodhufflepuff Spicy molasses cookies (cinnamon, clove, & allspice) with a hint of coffee, & raisins. (I‘ve never understood the raisin hatred that some people passionately spout.) They‘re soft, & chewy, & just all-around drool-worthy. 😉 5y
BookmarkTavern Ooo! 😍 I may have to look up a recipe for those. They sound amazing. I‘ve got a half a bottle of molasses leftover from a chocolate cake I made. 😂 5y

BookmarkTavern Will do! 😁 5y
Meaw_catlady I want cookies now! 🖤 5y
shanaqui Ever had speculoos? I never did before I lived in Belgium but aaaah I could eat it by the bucketful. 5y
Dolly I LOVE cookies especially a good chewy peanutbutter or a linzer (?) one or ten. I never choose hermits but when I eat them they‘re always better than I remember. Definitely underrated- but NO raisins. 5y
monalyisha @shanaqui Yes! From Trader Joe‘s (grocery store). Both in cookie form & as an ice cream. SO GOOD. I just found & love this review: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.theimpulsivebuy.com/wordpress/2014/09/02/review... 5y

I hate picking favorites, but @No_One asked so here we go:
Book series: Hunger Games (& HP, of course)
Movie: Funny Face, Shawshank, & Austenland
Color: Yellow
Dessert: Cookies
Flower: The pretty ones! (The pic is from the trial gardens at Colorado State)
#TopFiveFaves
(These are subject to change next week 😉)

No_One Yay! Cool! Thanks @Amandajoy !! It is hard to choose favourites. ? When I was a kid, every single picture I coloured or drew HAD to have yellow in it or else it looked "unfinished" to me. ?? 7y
No_One Lol, I sooo understand the "subject to change" comment. ?? 7y

I love this cookbook of both sweet and savory "cookies." Seen here: mocha ricotta puffs. They have a crispy outside and a soft inside, with hints of coffee and cinnamon!

The recipes are pretty easy, though I frequently second guess myself when things don't look like the photos. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5 stars)

Audrey ❤️ Dorie and her cookbooks. I have a batch of her chocolate chip cookies resting in the fridge now. 8y

This beauty came in the mail today. I won it in the #litsycooks giveaway. I think one of my goals for the new year is going to be to bake more cookies! They all look so good! Thanks @Litsy & @HMHCooks this is going to be put to good use!

Loved this library book! So much so, I may need my own copy! Tried these out today, the Snowy Topped Brownie Drops 😋As many of the recipes are somewhat involved, I would recommend to experienced bakers. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

KDo27 Loooks so good! 8y
ReadingEnvy I think Dorie's cookbooks should be staples in every home. My go to party cake comes from 8y

As a cookie fanatic who's constantly searching blogs for unique recipes, I have to say this book is the stuff of dreams. I can't wait for some of these to make their way onto my cookie trays. The storage tips are ESPECIALLY great for the Christmas cookie bake-a-thon that will be happening next week.

"Semolina flour gives these rather plain-looking but delicious cookies a delightfully sandy texture. Almond flour makes them moist and rich, adding a gentle flavor and scent." -- Melissa Clark, The New York Times

Cocoa tahini cookies with sesame crunch (pg 131)The sesame crunch was positively addictive. It was hard not to munch on that before putting the dough together. I haven't tried one yet, I'm actually showing some restraint. But they sure are pretty. #litsycooks, #cookbooklove. 💜💜💖💖

Suzze Those look great. 8y
Suet624 Yummy. I want. 8y
DebinHawaii Those cookies look amazing! I am impressed with your restraint! 😀👍 8y
Audrey @DebinHawaii it's easy to show restraint when there is a lot of stuff going on in the kitchen. 8y

I love Dorie's cookbooks. Her recipes and pictures are so appealing and most importantly, they work. This new cookie cookbook is exceptional bc she's honed various techniques and made numerous notes. Also, the measurements are in weights and volume. It's been many years since I've made these World Peace cookies. But it seems appropriate now more then ever. #cookbooklove

Audrey Also, thinking of Jessica as I wait for these to cooldown so I can pack them for the Read Harder book group today. 8y

It cannot be overstated: Dorie Greenspan writes outstanding cookbooks. Not only are her recipes spot on, but Greenspan is a terrific writer and teacher. All of my copies of her books are dog-eared & stained & her latest is no exception. Packed with fantastic recipes for all kinds of cookies–brownies & bars to rolled & drop cookies. An absolute must-have for any baker! - S.B., Head Cookbook Buyer

AmyG I love her, too. I NEED this book. 8y
