It must be the weather. I guess I am getting ready for a rainy weekend or something.
I have made the following things: Challah for Shabbat dinner, a small spinach casserole, butternut squash soup, hamentashen (special three cornered cookies for the Jewish holiday of Purim) and a cherry and chocolate cake. I started at 9:30 this morning and it’s 1:30 now and the last cookie is about to come out of the oven. My house smells. . . well, heavenly. I wish I could send a whiff over the internet to share with you. A little piece of chocolate cake ? A little bowl of soup?
Later today, we will add baked chicken and roasted potatoes with some green beans to the list. It’s a feast in honor of the day of rest. And I won’t have to cook a thing all day tomorrow. It’s still Friday for me as I write this, but when I post it, the day on DD changes at 4:00 pm my time and it will Saturday on the calendar. A little confusing all in all. But never mind, when you have cookies in the oven, all is right with the world.
Ah look, it has begun to rain !
