Comments (10)lenam, a friend of mine owns a shoe store that sells Danskos, Birkenstocks, etc. and says that all the flip flop wearers is what keeps in him in business (including me). They usually end up in his store HAVING to buy his shoes with more support, mainly from PF. I still wear flip flops on occasion, but years of wearing them constantly is what gave me PF. Can't give them up entirely though-LOL! Now I have to buy the Birkenstock sandals (not the original style) that are patent black or red and silver, the dressiest and least "clunkiest" I can find. I have just about every color. Not my favorite look, but I ruined my feet wearing flip flops, with no support for years and years. I hadn't worked a job, so I wore flip flops every day in the warm months....See MoreWhy I don't make fru fru cookies (photos)
Comments (20)I know you didnÂt want tipsÂbut in case someone is tempted to try this kind of cookie (with a different dough) Â Like craftyrn saysÂuse the canned prepared filling for these kinds of cookies. I make kolacki occasionally but I do think rolled cookies are a lot of trouble. I have all the ingredients to make some now but have not decided yet if I want them badly enough. Way back in college my boyfriendÂs mother was an expert at this kind of cookie. I wouldnÂt know how to do it at all if she had not written down everything for me in painful detail. When you read this recipe (itÂs 2 PAGES with all the notes), she must have been OCD. The prepared fillings are engineered to not flow. They are less sweet, though. Different jams vary in their "melt and run" quality. You need a thick one to begin with. I like raspberry jam more than the raspberry filling. So to get around that when using jam: you need to use a lot less filling. Like less than a half teaspoon. I like a cream cheese filling too: so put the cream cheese filling in, then add a dot of raspberry inside the cream cheese, which keeps the jam from running. ThatÂs even MORE trouble. I hate cutout cookies even more. They always get stuck in the cutters and mangled getting them out. And then itÂs like you HAVE to decorate them to make them look good, and I donÂt like that part. And IÂm an artist, for heavenÂs sake. Plus I have never found a cut out recipe that tasted good. Maybe itÂs because I have to add so much extra flour to roll them out that the proportions are ruined....See MoreLOOKING for: Fruit cake cookies
Comments (7)This recipe is from the Aunt of a good friend of mine: Joan's Fruitcake Cookies 1/2 lb. candied cherries, chopped 1/4 lb. candied lemon and orange peel, chopped 1/4 lb. candied pineapple, chopped 1 lb. dates, chopped 1 lb. white raisins, chopped 1 lb. walnuts, chopped 4 cups pecans, chopped 2 1/2 cups flour 1 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp cinnamon 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 cup butter, softened 2 eggs Mix together flour, soda, salt, & cinnamon. Beat eggs. Cream butter and sugar. Combine everything really well... including fruit and nuts. Shape into walnut-sized balls with your hands. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet 10 (15) minutes at 300º F. Makes about 150 balls, which is why I usually halve the recipe. And, just for fun: Fruitcake Brownies 1 cup unsalted butter + 2 Tblsp. to butter pan 9 oz. semisweet Chocolate, chopped 1 1/2 oz. unsweetened chocolate, chopped 1 cup plus 2 Tblsp. sugar 3 large eggs 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract 1 cup all purpose flour 1 tsp. Baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 1/2 cup chopped walnuts 1/3 cup chopped dried apricots 1/3 cup chopped dried figs 1/3 cup chopped pitted dates 1/3 cup dried sour cherries or dried currents Preheat oven to 350ºF Butter 13x9x2 glass baking dish (?) Combine 1 cup butter and both types of chocolates in saucepan. Stir over low heat until melted and smooth. Cool to lukewarm. Using electric mixer, beat sugar and 3 eggs in large bowl until very thick and pale, about 3 minutes. Stir in cooled chocolate mixture and the vanilla extract. Whisk 1 cup flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl to blend; then add to chocolate mixture. Mix in walnuts and dried fruits. Transfer batter to prepared pan; smooth top. Bake until top cracks and tester comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached, about 35 minutes. Cool in pan on rack. Makes about 24 squares....See More- 6 years agolast modified: 6 years ago
