How to make delicious tahini cookies

I’ve done very little hobby cooking in the last few months. The reason is that I now work in a kitchen and when I return home, I don’t want to step into another kitchen and do even more cooking. Sandwiches and microwavable food are my staple diet nowadays. But now is my second week off

Another recipe to pass the time in quarantine

It’s Wednesday and I’ve yet to work any hours this week. Lack of materials at the factory. Again. So, I’m stuck at home, trying my best to pass the days by writing, reading, playing video games (stuck on the 4th level of Splatterhouse 3 at the moment) and occasionally cooking. On today’s menu: cream and
