i am feeling pretty darn homesick for california these days. i don’t know if it’s because i have more time to think while prepping for my last final (because two of my classes are DONE!!). or maybe it’s because we aren’t going back to california for spring break. or perhaps it’s because we’re missing two of our closest friends’ 30th bdays (happy birthday, jamie and tyler!!), and we’re also missing both of our dads’ birthdays (happy birthday, chuck and dad!).
i think we can all agree that it’s officially holiday season. and what that means for many of us (or most of us, i’m guessing, especially if you’re reading this site) is baking tons of cookies. my favorites are sugar cookies and krumkakes (traditional norwegian cookies).
eclaire note: i’m in the middle of final exams right now, but luckily one of my dearest friends offered to share a guest post with you! i’m continually inspired by katie’s cooking and baking, so you’re in for a treat, dear readers. enjoy!
Hi my fellow eclaire readers. As a long time friend of Emilie’s and a reader of her blog, I thought since Emilie is in the midst of finals and I was making my favorite holiday cookies now would be a good time for a guest post. These seven layer (rainbow) cookies are my favorite holiday cookies because they meet all my requirements for a great holiday cookie:
eclaire note: remember how i told you i had a surprise for you? well, here it is – the first ever guest post on eclaire.name! my fabulous sis-in-law has a delicious recipe to share with you, hopefully the first of many guest posts!!
Hello eclaire readers! I’m Emilie’s sister-in-law, Laura. While Emilie is off slaving away over her books and (I’m sure) generally rocking at graduate school, I thought I would share a recipe that has been in our family for years!
two years ago this week, i opened my laptop and began blogging about food, excited to share my favorite baked goods, dinners, breakfasts, and side dishes with all of you, my friends and family (and whomever else might stumble upon this website – hi, if that’s you! please leave me a comment and let me know you’re here!). since the inception of eclaire.name, back in july of 2008, i’ve posted 115 recipes. i have loved writing stories and anecdotes about where i found the recipes, and why i love to make the dishes.
