T'is The Season for: Russian Tea Cakes


1 cup butter
1/2 cup confectioners (powdered) sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup finely chopped nuts (walnuts)

Preheat oven: 400 F. Mix butter, sugar, vanilla. Slowly work in four. Shape dough into small balls. Put them on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 mins. Once cooled a bit roll in powdered sugar (mix in sprinkles). Cool more and roll in sugar again.
makes 4 dozen [but thats a lie, you really should double it or you'll only get 2 dozen - no joke!]

Brought to you by a worn Betty Crocker cookbook from the '60's.
Santa's #1 choice for a Christmas cookie treat.

I love these buttery cakes. Make some.
The picture above was taken with my new camera. But its still a damn kodak easyshare but this time its a kodak easyshare c643 instead of that other number the other one was. And this one has a zoom lense that doesn't suck, and it takes sound video. It's truely fantastic. So thanks Santa, and sorry I didn't make the tea cake cookies until last night, but I'm sure it'll be different next year.

I wanted a computer so I could put music on it without it crashing and dying and weasing under the pain of being so last century. (windows 98)
Fallon had a good christmas she racked in 2 huge presents aside from all her other Christmas presents and birthday gifts a week ago. She got a build-your-own-fort set and her very own bistro stand (its very stylish). The neon colors of the build-a-fort set is rather out of place in our living room next to that bistro set. Fallon doesn't need anything else...the brat.

Happy New Year.
