Well, the past few months have been hectic for me! I am 13 weeks pregnant and have suffered (still suffering) from terrible pregnancy sickness. So needless to say, cooking has taken a back-seat unfortunately!
I managed to bring myself to start baking again. These delightful little morsels will have your hand in the cookie jar a little more often at tea-time (or inbetween meals). Enjoy!
