Dec 7..Christmas Cookies Day 3..Double Chocolate Biscotti

     Does anyone remember when they tried their first biscotti? Mine had to have been when I was in my early 20s while I was at the Moody Bible Institute. Some of us from the kitchen and serving staff used to go to a coffee house in Chicago called The 3rd Coast.

     Actually I had a lot of first at the 3rd Coast. My first espresso, my first cappuccino, my first scone (blueberry...next time I went back someone in our group asked for on of the puffy pop-tart things) and one of the first places I took my wife on a date.

Years later we tried to make some in Brasil and they turned out pretty good. We've made all sorts of different kinds by now. Do me a favor, don't buy the ones at Starbucks, make yourself a good cup and coffee and enjoy some homemade ones.

     Remeber when Bruce Willis starred in the show Moonlighting and Cybill Shepherd was always filmed in that soft glowing light? I did the same to Joy's photo below.
