Baking Therapy

Posted by Cheryl on Feb 08 2007 | 6. Eat on Saturday, The Kitchen Sink

The smell of warm spices…now that’s a recipe for recovery.

My Eldest-Kiddie-Daughter has been ill this week. Fever. Cough. Blah. Cough. Congestion. Cough.

So today I took advantage of the winterlike weather with the falling-snow-that-would-love-to-stick-but-it-never-gets-that-cold-here type of day. Even with a perpetually chilly kitchen, a warm oven and the smell of baking cookies brought faint smiles to the feverish face. Today’s work…gingerbread.


Not in men or women form, but to celebrate February…hearts.


Dotty hearts, stripey hearts, snappy hearts and ziggy hearts.


That and a steamy cup of Barry’s Gold Blend tea….I think she’ll be on the mend.

    I see something in the pic there which says “treacle.” What, pray tell, is that? I mean, I’ve heard the word, obviously, but … is it like molasses?
