Today’s post is dedicated to someone I call a friend, though we’ve never met. Rosmarie DiDomenico (aka “Nana”) sadly passed away last month at the age of 89. I’ve “known” Nana for over 10 years via the online cooking groups dedicated to working through Dorie Greenspan’s books – firstly, when she cooked through Around my […]

Tuesdays with Dorie (Dorie’s Cookies): Coconut-Lime Sablés
This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe from Dorie’s Cookies was a simple sablé (shortbread) with a topical twist.

Dorie says: I am immune to peanut butter’s common charms. If I couldn’t have another peanut butter cup for the rest of my life, I’d be […]
