12/8/2023 0 Comments Happy christmas treesBake these cookies, put "The Lady is a Tramp" on repeat, and come into my world. So happy birthday to me and my birthday twin, Frank Sinatra. But, if I could share these cookies with you in the end, it was worth everything that came before. As with everything I've attempted for this blog, the process was not without its foibles. Recreating them now was equal parts fun, meditative, and humbling. My mother, who also (jointly) created me, first brought these cookies to life on Christmas Eve, 1986-and, at the time, they seemed nothing less than emblematic of femininity's intrinsic richness and mystery. That she could create something so beautiful, so nuanced, so simultaneously manifest and elusive. On the occasion of my 38th birthday, I give you these Hazelnut Christmas Trees.
