Flavored Jam Tea Cookies

I have found the PERFECT cookies! I made a batch of these yesterday and they are already gone. I haven't had anything sweet in the apartment for about 2 weeks and I couldn't stand it anymore. I decided I would have to go to the store to get something. I went to check my mailbox and what do I find? The November/December issue of Simple & Delicious! Christmas and Holiday recipes. Cookies, candies, treats, you name it! I stumbled across their Holiday Dough recipe and decided to make some of their "Strawberry Tea Cookies". I'm not a big fan of Strawberry jam, so I decided to pick up a few different flavors incase I didn't like the Strawberry :) Yesterday was Strawberry and Blackberry and they were OH so delicious. I found the cute little Heart cookie cutters at Michaels, and I also found a "flower" type set as well. Nesting Cookie Cutters are the way to go! They make it easy to cut the center out of the top cookies :p ANYWAY. This is a two recipe cookie, the Dough, and then the cookie itself :) You can also use the dough by itself or be creative and do something else with them! Enjoy!

Triple-Berry Spinach Salad

I am now subscribed to 3 different Taste of Home magazines and I've been finding LOTS of recipes I want to try out. This is one that I made about a week or two ago and tweaked it a little since not all of the ingredients were available. This has to be one of the BEST salads I've ever had.
You can use as much fruit as you want really. I didn't measure mine so I'll post what the recipe called for. The recipe also called for onion, but I don't care for onion with my fruit so I omitted it.
