Since my books have a lot of ingredients, I've included recipes on a new Web page, put together by author-illustrator Deb Pilutti--and she's made printable recipe cards.
If you feel like cooking along with a story, there are four recipes--Elena's staple food, tortillas; oatmeal cookies the sheep could make with their Halloween treats; a savory custard on the menu at the Tiddley Wink Teashop; and maple porridge sought by marauding raccoons. Of course, if you're an oatmeal aficionado, you can use the tastier and slower-cooking rolled or steel-cut oats. I like to tinker in the kitchen--please tinker along.
The sheep get apples, oats, sugar, and eggs as Halloween treats--they go into trick-or-treat cookies. |
