If you'll remember back to my American Girl spam, Addy's birthday collection included a little tin of benne sweets, a little candy made from sesame seeds that comes from the South Carolina low country.

Since I've been on a bit of a low country cooking kick, I decided try making them. They are delicious! Kind of fiddly figuring out the right scoop size/bake time ratio but once I got it figured out they were wonderful.

Making them is a bit of a production since you're making very small scoops of dough and baking them for 4-6 minutes at a time, AND you have to let them cool before you can take them off the baking sheet. It took six batches of them in the oven!

Buuut they're totally addictive and small and crunchy and delicious. Everyone should make cookies inspired by their childhood dolls.

I think this is one of Addy's less popular outfits, but I always loved it. Partially because I was given the short story it goes with as a kid and I read it so many times over the years.

Addy’s Summer Dress is cute and accurate, so not especially noteworthy. It was one I didn’t have as a kid, but now I really want as an adult.

One of the things I really appreciate about Addy’s story is how it showed how families struggled to reunite after Emancipation. In Addy Saves the Day, Addy writes a letter to the Quaker Aid Society, but many people with misplaced family members placed ads in newspapers asking for information. They’re some of the most heart-breaking things you’ll ever read.

Many families were never reunited.

“My great-grandmother Rose, mother of Ashley, gave her this sack when she was sold age 9 in South Carolina. It held a tattered dress, 3 handfulls of pecans, a braid of Rose’s hair. Told her, “It be filled with my LOVE always.” She never saw her again. Ashley is my grandmother. Ruth Middleton, 1920″

OC lineup!

RADIOSTATIC FANCHILDREN YAYYYY (they would so both be girl dads dont fight me on this bc im right)

theyre both papas girls (vox is papa al is daddy)!! addys older, and al named addy while vox named vienna. viennas the little princess of the family lol

more under the cut <3

husk likes vienna better bc she reminds him of vox (specifically newly fallen sinner vox) so he dotes on her like he used to dote on him. she calls him uncle husk and he calls her little voicebox (vox thinks its adorable, alastor HATES it but he doesnt kill husk for the sake of vox and their daughters. plus husk did help raise them nd keep vox sane while he was gone, so. theres that)

rosie and addy are super close. addys the reason why rosie and vel are so close, she goes to both of them whenever she needs advice or wants to vent about something to her favourite aunties (vox and al ask rosie to babysit addy and vienna most of the time. vienna is a little awkward around her but otherwise shes fine)

al and vox wouldve been married for a long time here. probably like 60s-70s time? (his hair looks better here because thats what being in love does to u babeyyy hells hairstylists got nothing on alastors pinkie pie hair ass bitch) and addy and vienna are actually a bit older than they look (addy looks to be 10, vienna 8 but addys actually 15 and viennas 13). al didnt choose to leave for 7 years, and he meant to tell them beforehand but didnt have time so vox spent 7 years raising both his girls with the help of the other vees / husk / rosie, which is why addy and vienna like their papa better

We got a light snow fall this week and Addy and I went out to enjoy a bit of it.
