Greek Almond Christmas Cookies
We have been trying somewhat to keep up the Christmas Spirit, but it has been very hard these past few days. With my mom visiting we went into the kitchen and starting making Kourambiedes (Greek Almond Cookies) it would take our minds off of things and just concentrate on cooking. I love cooking and besides this being my passion it has also been a real help to me whenever I was upset or stressed out, and this is one of those times.
