Straight from Smitten Kitchen

  • 2 egg whites, room temperature — this is an excellent way to use up extra egg whites!
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3/4 cup regular or superfine sugar (I use a bit less — 1/2 cup — they’re plenty sweet)
  • 6 ounces chocolate chips, chopped (food processors do this nicely)
  • 1/4 chopped pecans or walnuts

Directions

Preheat oven to 300°F.

Beat egg whites until foamy. Add salt, cream of tartar and vanilla, and beat mixture again until it holds soft peaks. Add the sugar, gradually, beating the batter until it is stiff. Fold in the nuts and chocolate chips.

Spoon batter onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Bake for 25 minutes (according to SK recipe) or until the undersides of cookies should be golden or lightly tanned – this usually takes longer for me, closer to 35 or 40 minutes.

Note

I can’t believe I forgot to take a picture of the finished product!  I was rushing to get to an LLL meeting and didn’t do it when I got back.  Go visit Smitten Kitchen for a look at the meringues fully cooked.

Z was Raja in an Aladdin production through her dance studio @pasgeorgetown this evening and she did such a great job. I loved watching her. She took a year off dance and is getting back into it and you'd barely know she took any time off, plus she had a big smile on her face the whole time - I could tell she was having a ton of fun. ♥️

What happens when you go on a long weekend trip with only your husband, no kids, and no agenda? 

Lots of walking, cocktails in the middle of the day, singing at a piano bar, and time to write a blog post for the first time in nearly two years. Which I did! 

😮 For real. LOL 😊

Today Chris and I have been married for 15 years. We're celebrating with our first weekend away from children while my mom watches all four girls. We rented an old Victorian from the 1800s near the coast in Galveston, Texas and spent the day at a spa, eating delicious food, walking the beach under the stars, and finished the night with a bottle of bourbon saved from when we lived on Nantucket. I'm not sure I could have asked for a much better day. I even had an oppotunity to get out the lightship basket purse Chris gave me for our 5th anniversary. ♥️

We had a cold snap and yesterday we had to get all bundled up for Zara's soccer game. It was 30 degrees and, despite these pictures, Vivi's patience for being out there did not last long. Tomorrow it's supposed to be 80 degrees and we're really looking forward to warmth again.

By the way, my awesome gaiter came from our client @isacattostudio. Isa paints patterns and makes really beautiful textiles and notebooks with her patterns. ♥️ her work and team.
