It’s all about cookies around here.
In Juliet’s case, it is her beloved pumpkin treats.
The pup savors every crumb and dances for more. Think I’m exaggerating? Ask my neighbors and you will get a knowing nod. Around here, Juliet is known for her dancing chops—particularly for what we call her “triple Lutz” where she twirls and twirls (and twirls) like a spinning ice skater. What can I say? Juliet’s middle name is Terpsichore.

For me, my favorite cookies have always been my coconut macaroons (see recipe here), but now I’m not so sure. These shortbread cookies are sensational–crisp tender, not-too-sweet, elegant, versatile. And did I mention they are easy, too.
Here’s the recipe.
