What a sweet way to start my Saturday...

More goodies from Jane Greene, baker extraordinaire from Chappaqua, NY.
Repeat after me:
Lemon Squares, Rugelach and Cupcakes, oh my!
Lemon Squares, Rugelach and Cupcakes, oh my!
Lemon Squares, Rugelach and Cupcakes, oh my!

Then finish off with one of her perfect Caramel nut bars.
And remember: never paraphrase "The Wizard of Oz" with your mouth full, no matter how happy you are.)

Cookies to die for.



As a creative person, I learned very early that often the simplest of things can be quite difficult to perfect. When there are just a few elements in a composition, every single one counts and proportions are critical.

I suppose this is why I have such respect for bakers, especially bakers of cookies. What you can't see in my photos (but I ask that you take my word and trust me) is that these cookies are pure perfection.

They are from Jane Greene of Chappaqua, NY. I met her at the Chappaqua Farmer's Market as she was sampling her creations. You had to see the smiles and hear the groans of delight from the surprisingly large crowd who had braved the icy drizzle to spend some quality time at this wonderful indoor market. Jane was the star of the show. According to my daughter and her friend who were with me, they were the best cookies they've ever eaten. And 12 year olds know their cookies.
