Hey everyone!
I am so sorry that it has been so long! As I said in my last post, I have been incredibly busy, so much so that I'm not sure that I'll be returning to a regular posting schedule yet, but here is one recipe for you at the very least. My now fiancé J made these cookies according to the linked recipe below with only one change which I'll outline, which is why I can't post the recipe directly- it belongs to someone else!
The recipe is
here at The Kitchn called Cornmeal Lime Cookies.
The change that my fiancé J made was that he soaked the cornmeal in 1/4 cup of liquid until it was absorbed, which made for chewier cookies which stayed together better.
Let me show you some pics!

And here is everyone ready to be mixed- zest of limes, dry ingredients, butter and sugar for creaming, and soaked cornmeal (and don't forget the lime for juice!). |

Cream your butter and sugar, beat in the lime zest and juice, then beat in the eggs and vanilla. |
