This is one of my daughters. One of my most talented friend took some picture of her and her sister and they come out so beautiful.
This are the picture of my little princess Sophia .

Biscotti

This was a very busy week, my husband was out of town and our two girls were all for myself. It was the perfect week to make cookies too. I told my neighbor I was going to make cookies for her church but I was not expecting it was going to be the week my husband was not at home. Somehow I managed to make 100 cookies and wrap them all.
These are Italian biscotti. Biscotti in Italian is a term for all types of cookies; the ones in the US which are called biscotti are actually called "tarallucci' in Italy. So if you are taking a trip to Italy any time soon do not ask for biscotti thinking they are the kind in the US, because you will get a plate of cookies instead of the tarallucci you are actually wanting.

Altered bags

My mom came all the way from Italy to visit us and his new granddaughter, we had a lot of fun together and she loved so much my altered "Trader Joe" bags than I had to made a couple for her to take back home. She is going to keep one and fill the other with food and wine and give it as a present. I think I will copy her idea and do the same, it will be a cute Christmas basket.
