That looks very tasty and healthy.

I think green tea and ginger would not fight each other at all.

That girl does have talents. In order to make a living in something you
love, you have to apply yourself. That's always the tricky part. I saw this
written on the back of a t-shirt while waiting in a long line to register my
truck. It struck me as being true.

"Hard work beats talent, if talent doesn't work hard."

it all)

Last Wednesday, in preparation for visiting my son and his family,
especially the twins, I made 6dozen almond tarts, 3 dozen Italian
hazelnut cookies, 3 dozen crispy cranberry cashew cookies, 2 dozen
animal shaped cookies and 3 dozen dinner rolls.
Now I must make the same again for my other son.
