MARRIED MONDAY Thought for Today ~ Deb Caletti

Marriage is like a well-built porch.
If one of the two posts leans too much, the porch collapses.
So each must be strong enough to stand on its own.
~ Deb Caletti in The Secret Life of Prince Charming

Thought for Today ~ J.R.R. Tolkien

The world is indeed full of peril and in it there are many dark places.
But still there is much that is fair. And though in all lands, love is now
mingled with grief, it still grows, perhaps, the greater.
~ J.R.R. Tolkien in The Lord of the Rings

Favor Thursday: The Favor of Flavor

Last week we shared Editor’s favorite recipe for coconut macaroons. While they are delicious, they aren’t to be confused with macarons, an iconic food item in Europe, well known in Italy, France and Switzerland. European macarons are delicate gluten-free meringue sandwich cookies made with almond flour, egg whites and sugar.  Meringue is temperamental akin to bread dough.  After it is made, the batter is hand folded and each macaron shell is hand-piped, filled with a variety of fillings and then assembled. It is a hands-on process that requires patience and skill.
