easter. easter bunny. easter candy. eye candy. (aka Pecan Sandies & baby bunny)
Today was such a loverly day!
adree picked me up about 11 and i had made pecan sandies for the easter celebration at her aunts house. we colored eggs and made up easter baskets for a name we drew. i got her aunt theresa, and adri stuck a cigarette in it and i put it in the stuffed bunnies bow. she loved it! hehehe.
i chowed on guac and spree candy.
sugar headache!
then i rode my bike to mandys and watched Prince Caspian (ooh hoo hooo! ben barnes!) with taylor, on the couch eating peanut butter out of a trough jar and eating crackers. we also played with her new bunny Pippin! cutest little scraggly bunny i've ever seen. he would bite the skin on my fingers and yank! then he lounged in the sunlight. too much cuteness. mandy got home and we talke-ed and listened to rasputina and lay on her bed.
magical!
Here is the recipe for the Pecan Sandies. veganized from martha stewart.
- 1/2 cup earth balance, room temperature
- 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole wheat white flour (spooned and leveled)
- 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat "butter" and sugar until light and fluffy; beat in vanilla and salt. With mixer on low, gradually add flour, beating just until combined. Fold in pecans.
- Roll dough into 1 1/2-inch balls, and place on two baking sheets, 2 inches apart. With the dampened bottom of a glass, lightly flatten each ball.
- Bake until cookies are golden brown, 15 to 17 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer to wire racks, and let cool.
