Vichyssoise Soup aka Potato and Leek

Leeks are on special at Harris Farm this week so I had to make this velvet smooth, delicious soup.

Gingerbread Biscuits with Orange Blossom Icing

Delicious at any time of the year, my 3 children said this was one of the best baking sessions so far.

Replace the Orange Blossom water with orange rind and juice for a simpler version that is just as yummy.
