Hi!

They have added the spice jars online - waiting was worth it. I appreciate your offer of course. Thank you very much for telling me your source. I think the jars are so adorable, can't wait for them to arrive ;-)

What sort of sugar did you coat them with? Is it just powdered sugar??

That apricot curd sounds heavenly, I love that you put lime zest in it even if it's just 1 tsp.

Did I already tell you I love making choux pastry? I can't remember. I never would have thought of frying it. I do like healthier breakfasts (scones are healthy right:)), but I can't not try this.

Well, you know the sayin': "If a woman makes you beignets in the morning, marry her right away."
Huh? What?.. That's not a saying?!... well it should be!!

Those look sinfully good! ;-)

Yes, I can see why that name made you giggle as a child. They are adorable and pairing them with apricot would make a dream breakfast. What a doll your husband is to fry for you!

Seriously. I stop by your blog every day, although not in a creepy stalker-esque way, more in a humble supplicant to the Patron Saint of Gorgeous Creations way...and this one has roused me out of a bedtime perusal into full-on cooking frenzy. As always, you are a tremendous inspiration; it's gorgeous, it's beautiful, you make it all look so effortless and easy to accomplish! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sarah: mango nectar would work and be great with these too. You can pretty much turn any juice into a curd.

Alex: I got the jars at World Market here in SC. They are labeled as spice jar and come with their own little chalk. They are also cheap $1.99. Let me know if you would like me to pick you some up and send them to you, they are not on their website.

Marc: the curd is more for dipping as they shrink within two minutes. These were too small to inject with curd but I am far from saying it is impossible :)
