I really appreciate all your kind words (though I really don't deserve them!) and that you stop by and check out my ramblings and experiments. xoxo<br />P.S. - Being born in Hong Kong and moving here when I was 8, I'm sort of in that "in-between" place where I don't quite have a good fit in either space! But I like reading up, trying recipes, and tasting things to get to know both sides. It's all about food, right! : )Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439320856223502707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6628445235517647413.post-67192909504437804942014-01-24T01:45:58.870-05:002014-01-24T01:45:58.870-05:00I think your cookies look great!
