Vanilla sugar... its heavenly.. wonderful sprinkled on top of cookies... Yet actually I just like to open the jar occasionally and take a sniff... I simply love the smell of vanilla...
Ummm, I can just smell it! I'd like a cup of Earl Grey with a spoonfull please!
Mmmm!!! I can taste it. Vanilla sugar sounds so scrumptious.

i really need to get some vanilla! should we get another bulk order together soon?
Drool....
What a lovely idea - and a great find after you'd forgotten about it. It would be so lovely even over some strawberries or in a cup of tea.
Enjoy!
Oh lovely! Vanilla is my very favorite scent in the world. I use vanilla perfume, and someone once told me I smelled like a cookie ;-). There are worse things, I think?
And I love that you so often offer 'brightest blessings' -- so very sweet and inspiring! Reminds me of a scene in "The Secret of Roan Inish" when the grandmother is banking (right word?) the fire before she goes to bed, and she says the prayer of Saint Brigid, asking blessings and protection from the '8 brightest angels in heaven'.
Brightest Blessings ;-),

Sure wish I could really smell it. I can smell it in my imagination.... Thanks for the great post.
ooooo yum. i've always wanted to make that. it's so simple too. i need to get back in the kitchen.
This post sounds yummy!:)
Vanilla is my very favourite. Are you making fairy cakes?
You will have to show us what you have baked.
I have just left you a nice comment on the fairy card post. Sorry I missed it!:(
Better late than never, I suppose.
Love and bright wishes.

Oh yeah, now that's the good stuff. Enjoy!
Wouldn't it be lovely sprinkled on sugar cookies?
i can smell it. i have a big jar of it in my closet. it is the easiest and best thing to have around!
Yummy! I am envious as there is a baking moritoreum on at our house...He is still intent on losing that winter fat from all the baking done for the holidays. Darn!
