Today has been my Hanukkah baking/cooking day... The daycare children were collectively in a particularly foul mood. This cooking was accomplished amidst breaking up fights and saving nearly the entire daycare book collection from being destroyed page by page by preschoolers! Oh, then there was the chili painting on the wall...don't ask!
Frankly, it was a miracle any cooking got done at all - and a bigger miracle that I'm still alive to write about it!
But, as you can see in the photo to the right, my mission was accomplished, despite my little Holiday Grinches!
I am happy to have been charged with providing desserts and all things sweet for the family party tomorrow. I baked Blonde Chocolate Chip Walnut Brownies and Krispy Coconut Cookies. I also made Pecan Toffee. My own tradition is to bake every household a challah, a braided egg bread.
I am proud of my results...thought you'd like to see...
Ta-Da!
