Welcome to Litsy!

I'm spending the morning planning out my holiday baking; checking to see if there are recipes in here that I want to add to my usual baking plan. 🍪

60%. Thought it would higher.
I especially like fruit pies and crisps, and fudge which I can't make anymore because no one else in house eats it and I would have to eat whole pan.

Thanks for the tag @TheSpineView.

I got 61% on the survey. Three of my favorites are coconut cream pie, key lime pie, and blackberry cobbler. But I don't eat any of those at Thanksgiving, so it's safe to say Thanksgiving desserts aren't my favorite. #TLT #ThreeListThursday @dabbe

So much fun! The concept is fantastic: the reluctant hero is a young wizard whose magic can only influence dough—and whose familiars are a sourdough starter & a gingerbread man. I loved seeing Mona grow into her magic, grow into her power, and grow into herself. Although there are darker bits, and a dash of political intrigue, this is ultimately a cozy fantasy. The tone reads as MG or younger YA, with a strong coming-of-age plot. I loved it!

I feel blessed and happy by all messages, cards, parcels and emails filled with love and books and goodies 🩷🩷

Thank you so much Meg, Helen, Trish, Sue, Christie and Cindy!

Cookbook time again! Got this one from the library because I was looking for a specific shortbread recipe but alas, wrong book by the right author. Otherwise lovely recipes and charming "wee stories", although as always, people who come from small places and either stay or come back give me screaming claustrophobia.

As mentioned in our latest episode, here is the sourdough loaf I just baked! Looks good but it was hard as a rock after an hour. Probably something to do with proofing at altitude. Let me know if you have any tips or tricks.

There‘s been plenty of preserving and a decent amount of baking in my home recently, but I haven‘t been making any new cookbook recipes. So, today I‘m sharing this year‘s final batch of candied jalapeños, a few jars of tomato sauce, and these cinnamon rolls even if they are online recipes. Since the sourdough cinnamon rolls are from the Clever Carrot blog, I‘m tagging Emilie Raffa‘s cookbook.

Fast, fun and food themed. This series is so much fun to read. The setting and characters keep me coming back.
