I love baking, and I love mailing things to friends and family. The perfect intersection? Biscotti. They are cookies that are baked twice so that they are dry. That means they ship well and don't go bad quickly. Eat them dunked in coffee, tea, or milk.
I made three flavors today:
Chocolate Hazelnut
Pumpkin (using pumpkin grown by a friend that was in my freezer)
Almond
I must admit, although I love chocolate, I am a sucker for pumpkin baked goods. Even in the dog days of summer.

I'm Still Alive!
I know all my non-existent readers were wondering.
What's new since November?
I've added Biology to my studies. I am now taking two science classes so that I can get science-certified. I am applying for a provisional science certification (Alt. 4) this spring so hopefully I will have a better chance for a job next fall.
On a related note, I'm not sure I will continue working to become a Physical Therapist, which was my other idea behind the science classes. We dissected a fetal pig for Biology. Let's just say it wasn't pretty. I'm not sure I can handle Anatomy and Physiology with the cat dissections. I'm very good with the theory, but I like cats much more than pigs.
I have a new favorite brunch recipe to share: Cinnamon Baked French Toast. Soooo delicious! And so easy to make ahead. It was devoured before any pictures were taken. I don't look at the Pioneer Woman as often as Simply Recipes, but they do look tasty!
Oh yeah, and I'm pregnant! Sleeping 23 hours a day means there wasn't a lot to update the blog with, but now that I'm in the second trimester, energy is back!
