I love making homemade pesto! I hadn't thought of using almonds instead of pine nuts. I just made it without the nuts altogether since the pine nuts are so expensive. Next time I will try using the almonds like you suggested! I also leave out the Parmesan cheese and add it when I use the pesto. I think homemade pesto is way better then the kind you can buy at the store and so much more cost efficient!!!

Those cookies look so deliciously chunky. It sounds like these have some great flavor in them. I have a sweet treat linky party going on at my blog called "Sweets for a Saturday" (it will be open until Monday) and I'd like to invite you to stop by and link your cookies up. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com

The frosting I made was pretty simple: sour cream, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon in the mixer until it got fluffy.

Where did you get the "funny" interesting" "cool" buttons? I can't find that option. I think it was at the same place as the "share on facebook" thing," but I can't find that now either.

I have heard you can use a few drops of essential oil to make the vinegar less smelly but with it being diluted I'm sure it smells much less than you think!
