Today we remember St. Nicholas. The girls were delighted to find little bags with coins in their shoes. It was my last day of working at school for 2 whole weeks. After work, I took them to meet up with Jamie (a few years ago she crocheted us some snowflake ornaments), Fiona and Myra at Krohn's conservatory. Hannah spent her money on a tropical plant there...The girls are both ready for bed. We are now reading On the Banks of Plum Creek...so fascinating that they lived in a dugout. This week, we got a surprise package from Sylvia in the mail with 2 crosses! Hannah and Olivia love them.Don't these look great?
Click HERE for the simple recipe! Now, I wonder what I could use in place of the arrowroot biscuits (looks like there an Australian speciality, but I did get some when my girls were little, to teeth on...hmmm)? I got the recipe from this blog: http://tarisota.typepad.com/my_weblog/ ...so many scrumptious looking recipes.

May St. Nicholas intercede for us all. Thanks for sharing the pictures. The girls look so cute. I especially like the crosses. Have a blessed weekend! :-)
Happy St. Nicholas Day! I'm glad they like them (yes, they're olive wood btw).
Oh, my friend! The more I see of your faith, the more interested I am. It sounds so "untouched", or uncommercial... I don't know, it just has a sweet, ethereal feeling to it!
Anyways... Happy Saint Nicholas day!!! Lots of hugs to your kids!

Hello - Arrowroot briskets are quite plain you could also try any sort of shortbreads crushed quite finely - or we have another biscuit - marie biscuits? Im not sure if you can get those? - Good luck.
