While waiting for my books for class to return from the coffee shop, I have been cooking.
Emma has them : The Scarlett Letter and Caring for Words. Now she is home and the books are back. I need to get ready for class tomorrow but here is what I cooked this morning. Raining so the coffee shop was full. A local coffee shop not the one who has pumpkin lattes. Emma loves their Chai latte.

Oh my. The Macrina book looks wonderful. Not at the libraries here, though. Might have to plum for it.
And the winter cookbook. I must have that one as well. Very Susan Branch-ish.
You're sweet. Always bring a smile to my face, dear one.
