Hey there, time traveller!

Today’s Homemade Holidays feature is a recipe for delicate, melt-in-your-mouth Almond Crescent cookies.
“This is a cookie my Nana used to make, not necessarily for holidays specifically, but it’s one of my favourites, so now I make them every year. Almond and vanilla is such a classic combo and I love that this recipe isn’t super sweet,” writes Erin Lebar, the Free Press’s manager of audience engagement (and a heck of a baker).
