If you make anything this week, please let it be these cookies. They are so so good and if there wasn’t so much candy around this minute, I would be making them. Start with the cookies!

If you ended up picking through your office candy jar or your kids Halloween bags this week, you may be just as ready for this super filling wild rice salad. We are also making some skewers that can work on the grill or in the oven, weather pending. We are repeating the mushroom pasta from Valentines earlier this year because so many of you loved that one, if you are new, note that it is not a huge portion, but on the richer side, so we serve it with a big salad on the side.
