I think Thanksgiving is probably my favorite...
..or at least it’s in the top three. For me, it’s all about food and family and other good company. That’s all I want, really.  And I don’t even like turkey.

Baking dummy
While my biscotti were in the oven, I began to make another batch of cookies that I was super excited to try, pumpkin butterscotch cookies. They look real good, right? (The ones pictured are NOT mine) I originally found the recipe on this wonderful Tumblr I follow, creative anchorage (she’s an artist, craftsperson, baker… maker of neat and lovely things). My cookies would have been...

Baking night
A baking success and a baking fail learning experience.

Variations on Pumpkin Biscotti
Now, I’m not actually a huge fan of biscotti, but about a month ago, I decided to try and make some. I made Cranberry Cornmeal Biscotti, and found myself enjoying them. When thinking about what to bring to the table for Thanksgiving (I’m sort of an adult now, so I like to contribute), my mom suggested making biscotti.
