ALMOND AND BLUEBERRY COOKIES - GLUTEN-FREE

I have a blank mind this morning but I really don't feel like sitting here, staring at the keyboard, I want to go and get something for our stupid apricot tree (that obviously is regaining some kind of intelligence as it didn't grow leaves in December) and our lovely born-again peach tree, they need their yearly February treatment. The 'trans gender' lemon or rather ex. lemon tree will have to take care of itself, I haven't forgiven it for turning into some kind of orange tree. Sometimes I think our garden and its inhabitants are 'worse' than our children but at least I don't feel as responsible for the things growing outdoors as I feel for those growing indoors. And that is a relief.



Another Gluten-free Friday and I am still at it, I am almost surprising myself here. A very good friend of mine in the US sent me a big bag of dried blueberries and I want to share some of it with you so please have some gluten-free almond and blueberry cookies.
