Baltimore's famous Christmas lights on 34th Street
Up in the middle of Baltimore is a street well-known worldwide for its Christmas decorations. The Hampden neighborhood in Baltimore has a block of houses that are decorated together and 1000s come out to see the lights. Then it's off to the Rodgers Forge neighborhood where the connection between neighbors in the Love Lives Here area of town is visible for all to see.
Finally my cookie recipe:
2 sticks of butter (4oz x 2)
2 cups of sugar
3 eggs
1.5 tsp Cream of Tartar
1.5 tsp of Baking Soda (dissolved in .5 tbl of milk)
1 tsp of Salt
1 tsp of Vanilla
1 Tsp of Anise
3.5 cups of flour (plus maybe .5 cups during the rolling process)
1) Use softened butter in sticks. Let it sit out awhile or nuke it 20 seconds (do not melt). Mix the butter and sugar together quite well in a bowl.
2) Add and mix milk/soda, egg, Anise, and vanilla.
3) Add salt, cream of tartar, flour.
Mix the dough so it is mixed and 'rollable'.
On a floured mat, roll the dough, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking to the rolling pin. Get the dough to about 1/4 inch
Cut the cookies with cookie cutters or with a knife to make the shapes you want. Reroll unused dough until you have no more (p.s. I eat the dough but it is very sweet).
Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet (nonstick ok) at 400 degree for 6-8 minutes--basically until the bottoms start to turn slight brown. Do not overbake. You can underbake a bit (say 5 minutes in a very hot oven) but make sure you let cookies set a minute or two before trying to remove them from the pan (or they may break up).
Use buttermilk frosting or store bought frosting (I used Duncan Hines--worked fine) to cover them and then colored sugars to decorate.
Store in a ziploc bag to keep the freshness as they do harden quickly.

WALKI
walking-around-d.c.-as-the-cherry
Cherry Blossom Time! I mean, come on--it's the one time of the year when you just walk around and look at the trees, and today I did just that. You might have caught my livestream, but this is the 4k version which should look a bit better. We also checked out the goings on at the White House (not much) and a Biden motorcade returning to Crown.
Show not Tell.

A pretty quiet Tuesday in Washington so I went for a walk in the woods behind the Clinton's Washington, D.C. home, along with a hike through Georgetown looking for french fries. Come explore with me as we see a hill fully in bloom with Spring colors.

BOB D
bob-dole-memorial-with-multiple-mega
Today had me going around in circles, with motorcades on my left, motorcades on my right, and memorial services in two different places across Washington D.C. Bob Dole's memorial at the National Cathedral was attended by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, along with Mike Pence, Dick Cheney and Dan Quayle. I followed that with a trip down to the World War II Memorial where Tom Hanks and General Milley were leading a tribute to Bob Dole. We then made it over to the White House in time to see some moving trucks arrive, only to have the road closed while they were unloading. Did a chase with a Marine One depature but it was pretty dark.
