Almost 25 years ago, on Mothers Day, I received my first Mother’s Day present. She was an itsy bitsy five pound premmie with black-brown hair and big blue eyes. Quite a present. My daughter made me a mother. My favorite way to celebrate Mother’s Day is being with my kids. Presents aren’t important. Shared moments…

Candy Bar Blondies

April 19, 2013 by Wendy Sondov 24 Comments

I offer the disclaimer that I am not a chocolate lover. I am a chocolate liker without a discerning chocolate palate. Except for Fanny May vanilla creams (an addiction started in college by my roommate, a native Chicagoan), I prefer my chocolate dark and plain. No nuts (allergies). No caramel (too sticky). No fruity goo…

Our senses can provide powerful memory triggers of people and events in our lives. The smell of cedar brings my paternal grandmother to mind. She had a large cedar chest where she kept her treasures packed away in tissue paper. As a little girl, I would listen fascinated by my grandmother’s stories about each cedar…

Flourless Chocolate Cookies

March 22, 2013 by Wendy Sondov 43 Comments

The lure of forbidden fruit is hard to resist. Isn’t it funny how much more we want things when, for whatever reason, we can’t have them?   As a child, I was allergic to chocolate, which as a result made chocolate the most desirable flavor on earth.  These Flourless Chocolate Cookies would have been irresistible for…

Marbled Chocolate Chunk Cookies

March 7, 2013 by Wendy Sondov 40 Comments

There are many good cookie recipes in the world, but finding good care package recipes is more difficult than you might think. Delicious cookies get eaten quickly. It’s a compliment to the baker that there aren’t any cookies left in a day or two. The baker doesn’t know if the cookies would have been good…

Fig Jam Biscotti

March 1, 2013 by Wendy Sondov 29 Comments

This is a story about Fig Newtons (the cookie). And my husband. And a delicious fig cake created by Ashley at Cookie Monster Cooking. When I read Ashley’s recipe, I immediately thought of my husband. He has always loved Fig Newtons, or so I thought. I printed the recipe and gathered the ingredients.
