First, a little sunshine on this -20C kind of day… a Valentine’s gift from Mark:

Next, a recipe for banishing colds. ONIONS! And not pictured here is the toasted rosemary foccacia with butter and one big clove of minced garlic on it I ate IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS. I swear, I was just trying to kill germs, not the people around me.

Have you ever had one of these? It’s a waffle-textured cookie with a sweet layer of sugary goop in the middle. Place cookie overtop mug of steaming tea and the heat from the tea melts the middle to achieve delicously gooey results. A must-try. No comments about the Party of Five mug. Please. ;)

And this is how apples are eaten in our house. Emma’s is on the left, Sarah’s is on the right.
