Five years ago I found this recipe in a magazine and was attracted to the golden nugget macadamia nuts + chocolate + caramel. It sounded out of this world. Grammie, who visited from Fort Wayne, Indiana every year, might like these. I brought a tin to my mom’s house and I remember her smile when […]
The sink is full of soapy warm water and the oven is humming all day long. The Sugar and Spice cookie factory is running at full tilt. Last night, after many cookies were cooling, I asked which one had the highest rating among the tribe. This Chocolate Pecan Rolo Cookie Recipe was the hands-down winner. Why is […]
In the spirit of the season some online friends asked if I want to be apart of a cookie exchange.

No water, that’s right. It’s a Dry Land Boat Parade ! Our town has an annual boat parade, with bright lights, an infectious spirit, plus Santa. It’s a take-off on all those fancy-dancy harbor parades off the Pacific, a few miles away. It has become a cherished tradition here in my part of the OC. […]
I’ve been a Tea Collection Mama for quite a while. I discovered the brand when my last two where toddlers, help gasp, tadalafil 4 years ago. Above is a photo with me and my youngest. She was showcasing a Tea ensemble back in the day. Goodness, pilule I miss that outfit and having only […]
Seared Scallops are not an everyday item here at Chez Sugar and Spice. I was not raised on sea food. Shrimp, on special occasions, heavily dunked in mild cocktail sauce was the extent of things.
