MAKE YOUR OWN GRANOLA

I have recently begun doing my best to avoid all processed foods (quite the
challenge) and came across this granola recipe which is hands down delicious.
During our recent trip to England we ate at The Bell at Selsley, a lovely
country inn where every part of breakfast was homemade, from the granola to the
marmalade. Setting out to duplicate the granola, I tried this recipe and just
love it! https://cookieandkate.com/healthy-granola-recipe

THE MANY LIVES OF MAMA LOVE

What a Memoir. A very well done insight into the world of addiction and the
associated consequences, and the power of the human spirit to overcome those and
shine. Read this in one day, couldn’t put it down. A fantastic, well written
book.

THE PARIS DAUGHTER – FIVE STARS IN MY BOOK

Dang. Yes it’s a WW2 book but not like most of the others at all. What a great
story. Highly recommend this book and this author, even if you’re not a
historical fiction fan. Great personality development, a solid ending, just a
good, good read.

THE SPOON STEALER – FIVE STARS

Well I almost put this down – not wowed by the title to start with, and then
while we all wish we did, who has a talking dog? But this turned out to be a
delightful story full of life lessons, warm feelings, a few chuckles and an
occasional tear. Great job. An easy and enjoyable read. Can’t wait to read one
of Ms. Crewe’s other books!

CITRUS OLIVE OIL CAKE

This was amazing. I was doubtful just because of the olive oil for no good
reason – I used Wegmans extra virgin lemon olive oil and subbed almond milk for
the whole milk. Absolutely yummy, very moist, great taste, lovely tea or
breakfast cake. (And I love this site for recipes as well).

LADY TAN’S CIRCLE OF WOMEN

If you’re interested in history at all, and in particular Chinese history, the
(horrible) treatment of women in the late 1500’s, and a great cast of
characters, this is an excellent read. Loosely based on a woman physician in
China during that time, I found it fascinating – not only a good story and as
mentioned, great characters, but all the intricacies of life at that time. 5
Stars in my opinion!

THE ART THIEF BY MICHAEL FINKEL

Not knowing much about this book other than it was recommended on one of the
Facebook groups I frequent, it popped up as now available on my library hold
list. Well. What a story! I didn’t know the history of Mr. Breitweiser but this
is worth a read in my opinion – it’s not super long, about a 4 hour read, and
just a fascinating true story. I won’t go into any spoilers though I had to read
everything Wikipedia had to say about him of course.

VA3695 – WHAT A GREAT LIFE!

18 years ago, in October of 2005, I adopted Alexander the Great from the VA
Siamese Rescue. Yesterday, I had to make the difficult decision to let him go,
to free his sweet soul from his old and failing body.

I wanted to write to thank you for everything you have done for cats over the
years. Alex was truly one of the sweetest cats I’ve ever known, and I am so
grateful to you for making it possible for me to adopt him and spend the last 18
years loving him. He grew into a confident cat, but he always maintained the
sweetest and most laid back demeanor.

You and your team gave him his name because you wanted this sweet but shy guy to
grow up into a strong brave cat. I couldn’t bear to change his name, because I
had nothing better to offer, so “Alex” stuck. And it worked. He grew up to be a
strong, confident, and adventurous cat. Many friends said he was like a puppy,
because he would greet people at the door and follow people around the house.
When I started taking him on adventures beyond his own back yard about 6 years
ago, he was a welcome participant. And I loved it, because that meant he could
go with me on my travels. He was truly one of a kind, and I hope he sends me
another sweet kitty soul to fill his big adventurous paw prints. 

Thank you again, for facilitating a perfect match for me and Alex 18 years ago.
My heart is aching today, but I will be forever grateful to have had him fill my
life with joy for so long. Thank you again for touching so many lives with your
commitment to caring for rescue cats.

TODAY’S BAKE: RASPBERRY RIBBONS

While you could easily make these with another type of jam/center, raspberry is
one of my favorites, and this recipe does not disappoint in any way, shape or
form – even my non-raspberry liking friend loves them! It is basically a very
good shortbread ‘bar’ with a strip of jam in the middle and a light piping of
sweetness on the top (which you could skip if you wanted). Be sure to use
butter, not margarine, and a good quality jam (Bonne Maman my go-to). Ignore the
1/2 cup designation and use what you feel like. I also used heavy cream for the
glaze (vs. evaporated milk).

TODAY’S BAKE: ORANGE CRANBERRY BARS – 12/7/23

Saw these and thought not much can go wrong with orange and cranberry, one of my
favorite combos, and then add in cream cheese frosting – WELL. Sure enough, this
is a five star bake! And it makes quite a bit, so if you’re looking to parcel
off some pieces to thank the UPS Driver (see
https://www.facebook.com/ChannellingKindness/ post of 12/11/23 ), these just
might be your ticket! My one comment on the recipe is the 1/4 cup of orange zest
can be, depending on the size of your oranges, quite a few oranges (took 6 for
me), so keep that in mind before you get started. My bake time was also a little
bit longer than indicated – closer to 28 minutes.
