I’m not sure when I first looked at a food blog. Are you? Did I even understand what it was when I first saw one? Another weird blog thing? I know that one of the first food blogs I fell in love with was The Wednesday Chef [1]. It was maybe three years ago that I found Luisa Weiss’ outstanding site. I immediately enjoyed her writing—it was smart, it was emotional, and it was funny. Luisa made blogging cool. (At the time, blogging was decidedly not cool—maybe it still isn’t.) It has been a pleasure to watch Luisa cook her way through recipes, both good and bad, and share her stories. I am so very pleased to have Luisa participating in the 12 Days of Cookies, especially now as she prepares to leave the states and head across the pond for exciting new adventures in Berlin (for more on that, read this incredibly moving post [2]). Luckily, she is taking us all with her.
These Cardamom-Pistachio Cookies [3] are a lovely little treat that will be an elegant addition to your cookie tray. Click on over to The Wednesday Chef [3] to read more about them and say hello and bon voyage to Luisa and see why she continues to make blogging cool.
Huge thanks to Luisa for making the time to bake cookies in the midst of preparing to move!
Check back tomorrow for another cookie recipe, they just keep coming!
