I think we should reward ourselves for doing a splendid job eating well! I’ve missed most of the celebratory delights in January, so I think I can indulge in February. And quite frankly, I want to start baking a few desserts that aren’t pies, since we are finally out of the holiday season.

The Cookie Jar: Over 90 Scrumptious Recipes for Home-Baked Treats
I adore cookies! The The Cookie Jar: Over 90 Scrumptious Recipes for Home-Baked Treats cookbook is exactly what you will need for all year around. The cookbook is divided into chapters like basic cookies, holiday cookies, and recipes from all around the world. A unique chapter in this cookie cookbook is the savory bites – I’d love to try a savory cookie!
Not only are there are variety of flavors and kinds of cookies, but so many useful tips. This includes making large batches and how to freeze them. I have a few family recipes I do this with and it is so helpful. Especially during the holidays!

If you’re looking to create elegant but effortless cookies, The Cookie Jar: Over 90 Scrumptious Recipes for Home-Baked Treats cookbook is perfect. The recipes are insanely easy, but the end result is gorgeous. These stained glass window biscuits will impress your guests.
I admit, this cookbook has inspired me to go out and buy a glass cookie jar. Baking beautiful treats and putting them on display will put a smile on my face and my guests!
Ice Cream Social!: Fabulous, Frosty and Fun Treats
One of my guilty pleasures is ice cream – I love it. When I saw this Ice Cream Social!: Fabulous, Frosty and Fun Treats cookbook I knew I had to have it.
I cannot believe there are 60 recipes in this cookbook that utilize ice cream. Honestly, I can’t think of more than 10 ways of using ice cream. I am absolutely thrilled to see some new desserts. I can’t wait to try their ice cream pops or ice cream sandwiches!
The Ice Cream Social!: Fabulous, Frosty and Fun Treats cookbook is hefty! It is a hard cover with 128 pages. 55 of those are big, bright, and colorful photos with each recipe on full display.
This cookbook is divided up into: Fruit Fest, Chocolate Shoppe, Cool Creations, Party Time, Funky Favorites and Holiday Delights. Ice cream can be enjoyed all year around (I would know!) I am looking forward to trying some themed ice cream desserts that aren’t summer oriented!
Afternoon Tea At Home: Deliciously Indulgent Recipes for Sandwiches, Savouries, Scones, Cakes, and Other Fancies
I cannot wait to dive into Afternoon Tea At Home: Deliciously Indulgent Recipes for Sandwiches, Savouries, Scones, Cakes, and Other Fancies cookbook!
There are 80 delightful sweet and savory recipes divided up into seasons. There is a mix of classic recipes from elaborate restaurants such as The Ritz and unique morsels that are just as sophisticated. Now we can host for all times of the year for every occasion.
These treats might be small, but they have big flavor. The recipes are a bit complicated and require some unique ingredients. Not to worry, there is a chapter of all your essentials, tools, and, ways to get started.
Hopefully by spring we will be able to have small gatherings like tea parties! I will be taking this time to practice baking and creating so when we do have the opportunity to get together it will be flawless!
