You need to try the Eades ‘Magic Rolls’. They’ve gotten me successfully through many cravings for bread, on low-carb dieting:

The reason I have to leave pecans out is because I developed a deadly allergy to macadamia nuts and the GI thought it would be best to avoid all tree nuts. I looooooooove pecans. I’m bummed about it. The only nut I eat now is peanut because it isn’t one.

The only thing worse than not having pecan pie is no macadamia nut cookies.

All of the Demel cakes are extraordinary......that one is particularly awesome. The concept of the cake and then the artistry to bring it to fruition.....not to mention what it tastes like.

I just love the acorn cakelets presentation:
that wonderful plate resembling the bark of a tree.

Speaking of trees, I’m learning to skeletonize leaves. My office will be moving next year into a new building, and I thought little framed leaves from the big oak tree outside our current front door would be nice ‘memento gifts’ at Christmas.

They say to take the leaves at the height of the summer, but I picked mine just two weeks ago, and they’re still not degenerating as I want (but I used the just-water to start, may have to go ahead and use chemicals):

Maybe you could make frameable silhouettes out of the leaves.

Place different sizes on heavy matting——then spray-paint lightly all around them.

Remove leaves-—when paint dries you’ll have a frameable silhouette.

Nice idea. There’s also Sun Art, or Sun Prints; we got this for our nephew one Christmas - I don’t think he was thrilled (I’m always trying to include ‘creative stuff’ which hasn’t gone over well ;-), but I wanted to play with it myself:

Not a cookie......but nice for breakfast or buffet.

Egg, Spinach & Tomato Loaf

Layer on sheetpan: hollowed out baguette half; tomato slices, bit salt; cooked or raw spinach
leaves. Then crack eggs down length of baguette. S/p. Broil 15-20 min (eggs cooked to your
liking). Remove and plate. Slice the baguette into pieces.

SERVE immediately.

Slightly fried or broiled tomato slices add a lot to any breakfast.
