Cookies that MUST be obtained.





No lie, these are like the most delicious cookies you've ever had, and I thank my cousins Jeff and Kathleen Korn for introducing us to these tasties from the Hamptons.  Or maybe "thanks" is not correct, because now that I know they are available locally, I'm addicted.

                                  

In the absence of Tate's, (truthfully, I saw them on the shelf at Cost Plus World Market, but I thought "I can't buy those AGAIN!"),  I highly recommend Salem Bakery's Moravian Cookies, specifically Pumpkin Spice.  All the way from Winston-Salem, they are the greatest export from North Carolina since Michael Jordan entered the NBA.




Tortellini Soup? Or dinner? Or crockpot mess? Not sure...

Followed this set of directions, but mine looks like this:

which is a lot more pink, clumpy with cream cheese that didn't melt,
and does not look very appetizing. It tastes alright, but I think there is
something missing from the original recipe, like maybe some actual real cheese.
 Gonna use it as a "soup" rather than a "dinner".
