Honestly, I have my usual handful of "props", which are just dishes I use at home because I realized early on in blogging that for me, it's not worth trying to invest in a bunch of dishes and things. That said, I often see a plate here or there and use the blog as an excuse to get it! My husband will see something and actually tell me to get it, I can use it for the blog. : )Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-38853089290132834912015-04-21T20:09:08.041-04:002015-04-21T20:09:08.041-04:00And the aroma from almond paste or almond extract ...And the aroma from almond paste or almond extract - it's intoxicating! hahaMonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-68370083562276544832015-04-21T15:59:32.534-04:002015-04-21T15:59:32.534-04:00Chewy cookies are the absolute best!
