Surfin' for quilt patterns


Well this is all you get done when you spend 4 hours online looking for the perfect design with which to quilt a delectable mountains quilt! One site links to another and before you know it the day has long shadows. So to make up for my lack of anything productive having been done, I had to make some peanut butter cookies and this is what they look like........And here's the recipe (if you're not on a wheat free diet, just use regular flour and skip the Xanthan gum).




In mixer bowl, blend:




1/2 cup each of brown sugar, white sugar, peanut butter and regular butter


1 tsp vanilla




Add One egg and mix till fluffy.




Stop mixer and add:


1+ 1/4 cups g/f flour mix


1 tsp Xanthan gum


3/4 tsp baking soda


1/2 tsp baking powder


1/4 tsp salt




Blend on med. speed till mix leaves the sides of the bowl and the beater. You may need to add a few more Tbsp of sweet rice flour to achieve this.


Using a med scoop, scoop out dough and place on cookie sheet about 2" apart. Mash down with fork and sprinkle with a dash of white sugar. Bake at 350 F for 15 minutes. Cool on rack. Makes 2 dozen big cookies.






For Jane and Philip: i gathered up some bubble wrap and got your parcel ready today, so don't drop it on your way from the post office!


For Sandie: Same thing


For Scott: Did Emily get her doll stuff yet?


For Kevin: Will try again to call you tonight.




And can you believe we are into March already? Plan tomorrow is to stay in my sewing room and not come out till I get my challenge quilt ready to photograph for the quilt registration. So it can rain all day if it wants to.
