toasted coconut biscotti monday april 26 2010 toasted coconut biscotti originally uploaded by jenib320 i wanted to share one of my favorite recipes for biscotti it s quick and easy it is perfect for dipping in coffee and in my favorite milk it will continue to be a little quiet in this space for the next two weeks this is the last week of classes with exam week coming up next week it shouldn t be too bad this semester but it will definitely be busy i still plan on posting but it will be a little sporadic toasted coconut biscotti originally uploaded by jenib320 toasted coconut biscotti recipe 1 3 4 c flour 3 4 t baking powder 1 4 t salt 1 4 t baking soda 1 8 t nutmeg 3 4 c sugar 1 t vanilla 2 large eggs 1 cup toasted coconut 1 preheat the oven to 300 degrees f 2 spread coconut on a cookie sheet and toast in the oven for 5 10 minutes this can be done while the oven is heating just be sure to check on it every few minutes 3 mix together the flour baking powder salt baking soda and nutmeg 4 beat sugar vanilla and eggs with a mixer or in a large bowl until thick 5 gradually add the dry ingredients and coconut to the wet mixture 6 pour out the mixture onto a greased cookie sheet spray a little cooking spray on your hands and shape into a log shape flatten a bit 7 bake for 40 minutes 8 remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes 9 slice into ½ inch or so slices 10 transfer to a cooling rack and put back in the oven to cook for an additional 15 20 minutes notes be careful when toasting the coconut it burns easily i don t keep nutmeg around because i hardly ever use it i used a little allspice instead and it tastes fine you can bake the biscotti the second time on the original cookie sheet if you want the advantage of cooking it on a cooling rack is that it bakes it on all four sides for extra crisp posted by jeni baker 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels food recipe vintage sewing chili and a giveaway friday april 23

blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels bunny fabric quilting vintage the pyrex series common patterns tuesday april 20 2010 the next few weeks of the pyrex series is going to deal with patterns this week s focus is on common patterns i say common reluctantly because not all of these patterns are necessarily all easy to find they are however all pretty standard in the sizes they came in and were not promotional so were made in decent quantity butterfly gold i ii originally uploaded by jenib320 there were two different versions of the butterfly gold pattern the first version is much more common than the second and one of if not the most common pattern produced the difference between the two is a slight difference in color and the actual design is slightly different spring blossom green i ii originally uploaded by jenib320 spring blossom green is another one of the most common patterns both spring blossom green and butterfly gold had lines or corelle dishes that coordinated making them extra popular there are two versions of spring blossom green the first is the most common the second has a lighter color of green on some of the pieces and a different design autumn harvest woodland originally uploaded by jenib320 autumn harvest and woodland were both produced near the end of vintage pyrex production both are considered somewhat newer patterns autumn harvest has red and orange pieces while woodland has two different shades of brown both often have safe for the microwave stamps on them colonial mist early american originally uploaded by jenib320 colonial mist and early american are both fairly common patterns early american has gold details on some of the pieces snowflake blue homestead originally uploaded by jenib320 snowflake blue is the only common pattern that i have never owned a piece of this photo is from my good friend twin72 on flickr i think this is simply by chance however plus it s not really my style i have to limit myself a little or i ll run out of room both patterns are generally considered pretty common gooseberry butterprint originally uploaded by jenib320 as with the majority of the patterns both gooseberry and butterprint have many pieces that have alternating colors there are some promotional pieces of butterprint along with the standard items i am pretty sure that neither butterprint nor gooseberry has oval casseroles daisy verde originally uploaded by jenib320 daisy and verde both are a little different daisy has pieces with opal lids as well as soild colored mixing bowls and another pattern on the cinderella bowls verde also has opal patterned lids along with solid casseroles mixing bowls and refrigerator dishes horizon blue friendship originally uploaded by jenib320 both horizon blue and friendship have solid colored pieces intermixed with the pattern pieces friendship can be somewhat hard to find because it is a popular pattern town country square flowers originally uploaded by jenib320 town country and square flowers have solids mixed with patterned pieces as well this can often make it hard to determine which set a solid pieces comes from forest fancies old orchard originally uploaded by jenib320 finally there is forest fancies and old orchard forest fancies as far as i know is all the same color pattern the speckled brown the old orchard has a few solid pieces in brown by the majority of the pieces are orange for much much more information on these patterns and many of the promotional patterns and pieces head over to the pyrex love website what is

originally uploaded by jenib320 since it was a perfect spring day yesterday i figured it was about time i did a little spring cleaning yesterday i tackled my sewing area i recently reorganized my fabric stash but after picking up a large amount of vintage fabric from the thrift things needed a little rearranging my apartment may not be that big but i do have a dedicated sewing crafting area which i use everyday it s right in the main room though so it s important that i keep it looking nice around my sewing area originally uploaded by jenib320 part of the messiness was caused by vintage sheets i just finished cutting up all 80 sheet fqs for the vintage sheet swap and there were scraps and unfolded sheets everywhere it was time they get a designated place so i shuffled around some of my vintage goodies and cleared a space for my vintage sheet and vintage fabric collection now it s all out in the open so i can look at it every day around my sewing area originally uploaded by jenib320 i don t think i shared my vintage fabric jackpot here this past weekend i picked up a ton of vintage fabric from a local thrift store in addition two weeks ago my mom let me go through her
