Studio ToutPetit. A Subtle Revelry | the art of merrymaking | D.I.Y. - Part 15. One of my favorite things about the holidays growing up was making the trek back to New York every year to visit our very large, very Italian family. No matter what else was happening, my grandma would always have a plate of pizelle cookies on the table. More than any other sweet, they optimize the Christmas season for me. So this year, in her honor, I’ve desired to remake the classic cookies in a new + fresh way. I collaborated with my favorite baker Athena and this colorful, fun, layered version emerged.

Perfect for a standout holiday cake, a great present for the neighbors, or even sweet ornaments for the tree. A batch of pizelles makes A LOT of cookies – so with one recipe you could create all three ideas. Here are the directions for making a basic pizzelle (makes about 30 5″ pizzelle cookies); 3 large eggs, 3/4 cups sugar, 2 teaspoon, vanilla extract, 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter – melted and cooled, 1-3/4 cup flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Who’s ready for a new month and a new interview? To say Laura’s photos are a marvel would be a huge understatement. Tell us a little bit about yourself.I am from Southern, DE and am primarily self-taught as an oil painter. How would you describe your artistic style? In paintings, I’m allowing my brush strokes to relax more and more to help create the energy that I want. Who are some of your artistic influences? What’s one of your favorite photos you’ve captured with your phone? A recent photo that I captioned “awe” is a current favorite because it was clearly God’s doing — I merely set the self-timer app to snap the photo. What are three of your desert island must-haves?

What are a few things you love about nature? Lottie Loves... Nessa Dee. Hi there. Baby here. I've hijacked my mom's blog because I need your help. You see my mom, God bless her, has been buying me new clothes on just about every trip she takes to a store. Now I appreciate the fact that she's trying to have me look like the trendiest baby on the playground, but I've got to draw the line somewhere, and this is where.... Sure these look like an innocent pair of sweet little baby blue jeans, that is, until you take a gander in my mom's closet... That's right, my mom bought me a pair of maternity jeans. Thanks!
