Tea and Cookies: A Secret Passion
Tea & Cookies
Psssst. I’m going to share a little secret about me that you probably didn’t know . . .
I am a cookie fiend!
I’m passionate about cookies!
That’s right, I would rather eat a cookie than any other baked goods. There’s something about a cookie that I can’t resist. I can turn down cake, pie, even donuts, but not a cookie.
Whew, I feel much better now that you know.
So, what’s this week’s Le Blog about? You guessed it
COOKIES! And tea of course.
You can imagine my excitement when I found these yummy tea cookies from Makabi & Sons.
These cookies are yummy on their own, but when paired with tea, they are outstanding.
If you’re a dunker, your secret is safe with me, but you’re going to love these. They can certainly take a dunk.
Makabi & Sons scour the globe to curate cookies imbued with flavors that honor local traditions and uphold universal appeal. Global and natural ingredients deliver everlasting and unforgettable tastes that transcend tastebuds, taking you on a journey to destinations both near and far. Delivered in hand-illustrated designer boxes. Based in Los Angeles. Women owned.
