Playing For You From Our Scented Cottage..

Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.

Spiced Walnut Jar Gifts...


Did you know that there is historical evidence that nuts are the oldest form of food for man, birds, and wild animals? I bet prehistoric man would have loved this recipe! Present it in a pretty jar and you have a gift that your friends and family will love. My advice is to make extra. You're going to want some for yourself!

Ingredients:
2 teaspoons ginger
1/2 teaspoon allspice
5 cups water
1 pound walnut halves
4 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt or seasoned salt

Add ginger and allspice to water; bring to boil.

Drop in walnuts and boil about 3 minutes; drain well.

Spread walnuts in a shallow pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Remove from oven and toss with melted butter and garlic salt or seasoned salt. Store in a pretty jar.
