Because I couldn't possibly be at my place. No! No one would ever expect to find white flour and white sugar at my place. Lucia doesn't eat those things, she doesn't cook with those things. Well, did you think I'd talk in third person, too? Surprises, everywhere! Truth be told, I bought those heavenly ingredients for a party I threw. It was quite a crepe-y event. My friends can attest to that. Anyway, now I have this flour and sugar here and well, I won't be here for roughly a month this winter so... I've got to be a good kid and not let these things go to waste. I introduce you to Lucia's Home-dried Cranberry and Orange Zest Sugar Cookes (Hey look! Third Person again. Huh.) This was the first time I used my cranberries in any sort of recipe. Drying them was really easy, I put them in boiling water until they cracked, and then into a oven that had been preheated to 350 for about ten minutes, then turned off. After a night in the oven, they went above my fridge to hang out for about a week. A long time, right? Honestly, I thought they'd get moldy or aquire some sort of wonky flavor. But they turned out just fine, and even better in cookies!
Chow, Lucia
