Cookies from Croatia

[susandennis]

I picked up these tea biscuits yesterday at the DK Market. I cracked them open jus tnow and YUM!! They are buttery and not too sweet or crumbly. Perfection.



And, the best part is that I know exactly where I can get more!

My handy, dandy, across the street ATM is casters up. Dead as a doornail. Also casters up is the stupid Capital One 'find an ATM' web page. "It's a known issue. So sorry." Don't sorry, fix it! How hard could that be?

So I bell back on BECU. There's one down the street and another across the street from Cash and Carry where I also needed to go to re-up my Diet Dr. Pepper stash. So that was today's big outing. Cash, check. DDP, check. Reward = Croatian cookie(s).

I got a couple of dolls made and a few more cut out and ready to assemble. Now I'm going to knit some bear. Just a nice lovely day here in old lady land.

Oh, my goodness. Those dolls are adorable. I had one in that style as a child, with ginger hair in a red dress. My mother bought it out of a Dutch toy magazine and I wouldn't go anywhere without it. I held its little blobby hand at night for company. I lived a very sheltered childhood and had no friends until I left high school, and am now back to that status; so that poor little doll ended up getting cried on a lot.

Thank you! I love making them. I imagine their going out to little kids and providing the same company that yours provided you. At least I hope so.

You should start an Etsy shop. I'm sure plenty of mothers (and kids using their parents' bank accounts!) would buy one.

Nope. I have no interest in any part of it but making them. I have a strict no sell rule. I have, so far, been lucky to find charities willing to get them good homes.
