Saturdays At Shop This

Brrr! It is finally winter weather in the Hudson Valley, and I am craving some hot chocolate. Like a shoemaker without shoes, my halls aren't decked and my gifts aren't purchased. That's what I will be doing this weekend. What about you? 

Say OUI to this French look from  Sezane Paris. Love everything about it....simple...classic....and ever so stylish. This website offers beautiful things! Find the Othello Cardigan here.

So we don't have any scenes like this in the lower Hudson Valley yet, thank God. But NYC does look like this after a fresh fallen snow. The image made me smile. Busy weekend so let's get to it. Here are my favorite links of the week.

They are crafted from unscented wax that have been transformed into amusing objects. I think they are fabulous, and make a statment on the dining table.

Champagne & Cookies For This Mom

{ Via: Tiffany LaBelle }

This Foodie Friday, we are talking about two of my favorite things ~ champagne and cookies! Please excuse the self indulgence, but I know a few other mammas out there that love this dreamy duo, namely Mollie.  By the way, you can buy the chic cookie above at Etsy. And of course, the illustration is done by my friend,  Tiffany LaBelle. So cheers to the Moms of the world, especially those missing their children, including myself.

Champagne Lemonade

I am a straight up kind of champagne lover, but there are some very interesting champagne cocktail recipes around. This is one.

Real House Moms

Lemon Cool Whip Cookies

Isn't this a plate of prettiness? And if you can believe, they are made with a cake mix. Best yet, you can change up the flavors, with a different cake mix. Fun! 

Tastes of Lizzy  T

Lemon Bar Cookies

Try this recipe to serve with the Champagne Lemonade. "The zingy tartness of lemon pairs perfectly with the richness of cream cheese and powdered sugar to make a delightful 

cookie recipe."

The Seaside Baker

Aperol Spritz Recipe

A good friend of mine, Maryclare, is a fan of this very sophisticated cocktail. It's also very European. Keep it cold with champagne ice cubes.

Broma Bakery

Melt In Your Mouth Italian Iced Orange Cookies

The trick to this "melt in your mouth" recipe is extra flour, just the right amount of sugar, and real butter. But that's a given in my book.

Ambitious Kitchen

Raspberry Lemon Snickerdoodle Cookies

Sharing Hummingbird High's wonderful recipe that I found on the WS blog.

Williams Sonoma

Strawberry Champagne Popsicles

Yes, I would just love to lick my champagne! The author says that they are easy to make, and go fast.

Bakers Royale

Soft and Chewy Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

You won't miss regular flour in these ooey gooey cookies. They are finished with a sprinkling of flaky salt, 

just like I do. 

Bon Jon Gourmet

Black Velvet

What a sexy cocktail served in a wonderful champagne coupe! It also is the most unusual champagne cocktail I have ever seen. Click the link to see the unique ingredients.

Anne Sage

Robin’s Egg Macarons

Gluten Free

The perfect Spring Cookie for everyone, including the chocolate lover like me.

Broma Bakery

Sparkling Lavender Cocktail

So easy to make.  It's made with Prosecco, lemon and lavender syrup. Simple but impressive.

Cooking LSL

Candied Pansy & Viola Miniature Pavlovas

Made with organic pansies, these are almost too pretty to eat.

Adventures in Cooking

Nathan Turner’s Pomegranate Champagne Cocktail

This recipe had me at Pomegranate. Nathan states: "“The bright seeds pop against the pale champagne and just make it feel special. You 

can also do a nonalcoholic version with 

sparkling water.”

Tory Burch Blog

Strawberry Coconut Macaroons

Pretty in pink. Said to be soft and chewy on the inside and a little crispy around the edges. A cookie with all of the "feels."

Sally's Baking Addiction

Raspberry Kir Royale

A Kir Royale is a French cocktail that is actually a variation on Kir. I love the fruity liqueur topped with champagne, but would rather have the champagne topped with Kir! The pink sugar rim adds the fun.
