ciao dal Accra: work has been keeping me occupied for the past couple of weeks. not complaining but work can take over my life if I'm not careful!!!! Alex's bakery has an exciting new product - the sugar cookie. But friends this is not just a sugar cookie, it's the most perfect sugar cookies ever. Thin, light, chewy, not-too-sweet - they are delightful and that's w/out the charming shapes Ema creates ... in 5 hours on Saturday, Alex's bakery produced a big batch of the cookies plus a lovely loaf of sourdough. he smiled at me on Saturday, proclaiming "I LOVE baking!"
