Farewell August, Welcome September


         At last, summer days come to a close 

as a new season is near.





















Cooler days ahead

but coffee is bliss

to a new day ahead













 



Remember to take it easier on yourself.  It helps
 with the muse of creativity.  Breath in, breath out.
Your work of art or literary piece is carefully 
spun out from a spark.  Find that calm place to focus.






By evening, perhaps a dessert coffee after a comfort

meal




Let us not forget the highlights of fall

as spooky characters appear for

trick or treats

















Remember to step out of your

element and create!












As leaves change, take a drive or walk to

enjoy the scenery.  Take a break from the norm,

see the beauty of nature's brush of colors.








A time for fun




As September greats us,

keep looking ahead


Work hard, work true

on your project















Remember to take a rest
to recharge, regroup

These cookies are packed with protein and, of course, chocolate chips too! They are crunchy and filling, with the perfect amount of sweetness to cure those cravings on the go or as a snack in school. 


Yields 6 servings.


Ingredients:

  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • ½ cup oil
  • ½ cup natural nut butter (peanut/almond/cashew)
  • ½ cup date/honey/maple syrup
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • ½ tsp. coarse salt
  • ½ tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup slivered almonds


Directions:

Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with baking paper.


In a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients and mix well with a sturdy spoon until well combined.


Use wet hands to roll the batter into balls and place on the baking sheet, leaving room between the cookies as they spread while baking. Bake in the oven for 12-14 minutes and let cool on a cooling rack. 


Store in a container. These cookies keep well for up to a week on the counter (that’s if they last that long) or in the freezer for up to two months. 



Enjoy!

Words & Brush Recipe Corner: Potatoes au Gratin

 

Potatoes au Gratin

                                        POTATOES au Gratin. (photo credit: freepik)


We have been making this in my summer camp each week, as the kids love it and keep asking for more. They affectionately call it “cheesy potatoes.” It’s really simple and absolutely delicious. Enjoy making it with your kids or grandkids, and you’ll all enjoy eating it even more.


Yields 6 servings.


Ingredients: 

8 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

1 Tbsp. butter

300 gr. shredded cheese (about 3 cups)

250 gr. heavy cream


Directions:

Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Combine the potatoes with the salt and pepper. Butter a 20 cm. x 30 cm. baking pan, and layer the bottom with the sliced potatoes, sprinkling shredded cheese on top. Repeat this process until all the potatoes and cheese are used. Pour the cream evenly over the top layer. 


Bake the dish uncovered for one hour, then check for tenderness with a fork. If the potatoes are not tender, bake for an additional 15 minutes.





ENJOY !
