Trish has been married to her best friend, David, for 19 years and they have three sons (ages 16, 15 and 13). Trish is from the coast of North Carolina, but they now live in rural West Tennessee on a 40+ acre farm. She has been homeschooling since 2009 and her homeschool style leans towards a Montessori approach with a heavy emphasis on hands-on learning. They also own a small business that Trish runs from home. Trish’s family is Messianic and they love studying the Scriptures, learning Hebrew and growing in their faith and walk daily. In her spare time, Trish loves to write, work in their garden and can regularly be found trying to learn something new, modeling that learning is indeed a life-long endeavor!
Okay, now you have me curious. Are I love you cookies a Christmas tradition in Germany?
Lebkuchen hearts are a staple at all the Christmas markets- they are hard gingerbread, and they decorate them so beautifully! The one Bug has isn’t anywhere near the biggest kind- many people use them to decorate, but we ate ours! I prefer the smaller, softer german lebkuchen, but these ones are so pretty!
Here is a recipe to check out if you like gingerbread- http://www.wiveswithknives.net/2011/11/30/nurnberger-lebkuchen-german-gingerbread/
I love this photo. And the cookie!
That cookie looks fantastic- enough to feed an entire family! And what a sweet picture of your son:)
