I've been experimenting in the kitchen again...

So, last weekend I had lunch at a Whole Foods in downtown Portland with a friend and we split the most heavenly wheat-free cookie for dessert. I was intrigued that a wheat-free cookie (as in NO FLOUR!!!???) could actually work and taste good and was inspired to make a version of my own so ...

here's the recipe folks, by popular demand from all who have tasted them (and a few who want to)!



Teresa’s Flourless Concoction Cookies
3 eggs
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 tsp baking soda
½ cup butter, softened
1 1/3 cups peanut butter
4 ½ cups old-fashioned oats
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup butterscotch chips
½ cup chopped pecans
½ cup shredded coconut

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease cookie sheets.
Cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars together until well mixed.
Add eggs, one at a time. Add vanilla.
In a separate bowl, mix together oats and baking soda then stir into batter.
Add all the yummy mix-ins (the sky’s the limit here people – leave out the nuts…change the chips to all chocolate…add m-n-m’s…but I think my combo is pretty yummy!)

Busy preparing for another show!

Once again my etsy site and blog have been languishing a bit as I prepare for my next show (well, ok, I've also been busy being a mom to 2 little ones and wife to 1 big one). This one is a May Fair at a private school that is a yearly event that apparently gets pretty good traffic. I'm looking at it as another wonderful oppurtunity to get my work out there and seen and make some connections with other artists in the community.
The fair is on
Saturday, May 2nd at the
Portland Waldorf School in Milwaukie, Oregon from
11am to 4pm - come by if you're in the area!!!! Here's a link to a little more info about it!
