a tease

***

this weekend we had perfect weather!

it was in the low 70's and we grilled out and sipped on mojitos!

it's a teaser of what's to come.  unfortunately, the cold will sweep back in at some point.

but i am waiting it out and looking forward to many nights of this.

i am desperately craving spring.

these chilly days have me longing for picnics, fresh air, long hikes in the woods, bike rides, and most of all fresh and local fruit and veggies.

i cannot wait to hear the crickets sing me to sleep.

ahhhhh hopefully it won't be long!

peanut butter pecan biscotti

***

these little delights are something you must try!

usually i'm not a big fan of biscotti just because it tends to be a little hard.

but these are just perfect.  the pecans are a perfect compliment to the peanut butter.

recipe adapted from joy the baker.

i was tempted to add chocolate chips.

i was also tempted to dip half of each one in melted chocolate.

i'll save that for next time.

enjoy!!
