get festive

 Because what else can you do? It snowed (but not as bad as predicted) and I made these Chewy Ambrosia Biscotti:


They're not as chewy as the name implies, though, or else they wouldn't really be biscotti.

As for this year's cookie tin, I forgot to take pictures the first time, but I'll try to remember when I thaw out the rest. 😁

And now for a teensy mini-review: 

I bought my brother some Elf cereal (not to be confused with Elf on the Shelf) and sampled it today just to get a sense of the maple flavor. Not very; not as much as I thought. And those fallback gritty corn balls...oh well, it's seasonal. And he's eating it, so...it served it's purpose. 👍

Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
