Easy Recipes For Those Who Like To Cook and Bake
Light and airy, these cake-like cookies will melt in your mouth! The peppermint schnapps gives the cookie a subtle mint flavor (you can add a little peppermint extract if you want them mintier) and the chocolate adds little bursts of flavor. If you prefer to skip the booze, just use 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract and decrease the flour to 2 cups. These would be perfect for St. Patrick’s Day!

Every year I make hubs Corned Beef and Cabbage and every year I ask myself why I don’t make it more often, the corned beef always gets gobbled up so quickly, so I go out to the market and buy another corned beef.
This year, I decided to bake my Corned Beef and Cabbage, except lo and behold, we didn’t buy any cabbage…gasp…So I baked the Corned Beef with potatoes and carrots and hubs went to the market to get a head of cabbage.
After everything was nicely baked, I placed all the ingredients in a crock pot, but the cabbage wasn’t cooking quick enough for me, so I placed it all in the oven, oh my my! Hubs said this was THE BEST CORNED BEEF!! Wow after 20 years of making this meal, I will be changing to baked only. The Corned Beef didn’t come with a seasoned packet so I made my own seasoning. Perfection!
Happy St.Patrick’s Day from the Moore Family!
May you always have…
Walls for the winds
A roof for the rain
Tea beside the fire
Laughter to cheer you
Those you love near you
And all your heart might desire.

| St. Patrick’s Day Irish Coffee: The best Irish Coffee that I have ever had was when 19 of us went to Ireland, hubs family and I. We try to go to a different country ever other year and that year we went to Ireland. It was one of the best trips, not only because I had never been to Ireland before but because they are of Irish decent, plus, Ireland is majestically breath taking. We just love being together, between laughing and story telling and lots of singing, there is lots of drinking! One gorgeous day, as we were driving the cliffs of Ireland, around the bend, my son in law and I noticed a beautiful spot to stop for a coffee. This is what we ordered. It was a clear, crisp day overlooking the bright green cliffs, rams and sheep scattering about. As we were brought our Irish Coffee’s, the waiter said a Good Morning with a twinkle in his eye. The first sip brought me to the Irish roots that I wish I had. It was so delicious with a combo of strong coffee, a bit of whiskey and fresh whipped thick cream. I savored each sip, admiring the Rhododendrons and wild Rosemary growing about. I sat thinking, don’t lose this memory, 7 years later this memory strikes me whenever making an Irish Coffee. Because it is so simply delicious, a toast to you! Happy St. Patrick’s Day! |
