Scavenger Hunt Sunday

This week for Scanvenger Hunt Sunday --kitchen, groups of three, me time, decay and things that make you go hmmmm.
-Kitchen-
My good friend Ingrid put an amazing receipe for Amaretti cookies on her blog.  I decided I must try them.  It took a couple of days to round up the ingredients as some were specialty items - specifically Vanilla Sugar and Caster Sugar.  I found all the ingredients I needed at Whole Foods with the exception of Vanilla Sugar.  This lead me to DeLaurenti's specialty food market at Pike Street Market in Seattle.  A great excuse to have a city day.  However, there are ways to make your own Vanilla Sugar and skip the outing if you prefer.  Vanilla Sugar info here  I also had to do a little conversion of weights and measures - 100g of sugar is about 1/2 cup. 
-Groups of Three-
The final product is DE-Lish!!  For the receipe head on over to Ingrid's blog
These are easy to make and so tasty.  I highly recommend.  Groups of Three is also the theme for Kat Sloma's

-Me Time-
 Drawing in my sketch book is perfect "me time" as well as journaling and studio time.  A cup of tea and some Amaretti cookies are a welcome addition to this time during the day.
-Decay-

 
-Things that make you go hmmmm....-
8 servings.
