Sharon, this sounds very much like a recipe I've seen in one of my books at home. Does your friend have any Middle Eastern connections? I recall a kind of cookie made in a mold (I think it had nuts in it but I'm not positive) that would melt in your mouth because it was made with very high propo

Sharon, Now I see that I was conflating two different recipes. The ones that I recall that were made in a mold were filled cookies. These are the melt-in-your-mouth walnut cookies. They're very easy and quite good. Believe me, they're incredible when made with butter. Avital GHOURIBI (MOROCCA

Re: [lace-chat] wattle for ANZAC Day???

2004-03-11 Thread David Collyer
Dear Helene, Why wattle? It should be Flanders poppies for ANZAC Day! To be strictly correct, the Flanders poppies were originally used on Remembrance Day (Nov 11th). The strange thing is that these days I can never get one to flower until about Nov 25th! All the local nurseries agree with me. I

Thank you so much for the package you sent. The thread is beautiful ... I love the colors you have picked. I made a bookmark of the pink and green you sent. It's a kind of funky tape lace flower. It's my favorite bookmark of all that I've ever made... the only one yet that I've kept for myself!
