Monday Morsel: Saveur's Smart Cookies

If you don't know about Saveur, then you'd probably like to.  This link, from Saveur, is perfect for this time of year: http://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Smart-Cookies-International-Holiday-Cookies!  I really like Saveur.  I like pretending I can pronounce it properly.  I like putting Saveur in italics.  The whole thing just makes me feel far more sophisticated than I really am.

 

Tomorrow is National Cookie Day. "Well, of course it is," I thought when I discovered that. Did you know English word "cookie" is derived from the Dutch word "koekje?" Now you do.
