I haven’t read much in November, and with my 12-days-of-blogmas didn’t feel like writing a sad book overview, therefore decided to combine the last two months of the year into this post. 2020 has ended! Finally! It was such a long, long year. And I must admit, I read quite a lot thanks to that. I have finished reading …… Read more »

As the end of the year approaches it’s time to look back at my reads from 2020. And I must admit, it wasn’t bad at all!

My eighteenth day of cheer was: a stained glass biscuits recipe! This was certainly unexpected, even though I stuck two recipes in my own made swaps. I’ve never heard of stained glass biscuits, and I also recently bought myself a set of cookie cutters. So I might add this one to my list of cookies when I start baking next… Read more »
