Who Stole the Cookies…

Did you see the Shrewsbury Cakes I made yesterday? The ones for which I made distilled rose water last week just so I could make these cookies? The ones I piped with Decorating Icing and topped with Candied Flowers? The cookies that I was going to bring to a picnic at the Shakespeare Festival?

Who do you think ate the candied flowers off the top and then licked the frosting off the cookies?

Caught!

He is thinking about how he should react to being caught.

Oh yes, keep calm and carry on.

This is a public service announcement reminding you to put your cookies in an airtight container out of reach of your children.

We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it later!

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
