Make the Weeknights Bright
Briefly

It's Cookie Week, haven't you heard? We just published seven new cookie recipes with videos on New York Times Cooking, and there are many more from years past on our YouTube channel, in case you want to revisit Eric Kim's frosted sugar cookies or Vaughn Vreeland's eggnog snickerdoodles. Friends are reaching out to tell me which ones they're baking from the new batch, and I love it. It's also the moment for potato latkes and the other delicacies of Hanukkah. I personally feel that latkes can make an excellent dinner themselves if they're properly adorned; I top mine with a schmear of sour cream and a piece of smoked salmon, though no one would be mad about a little caviar or a poached egg. If you're looking for a meatier main course, Melissa Clark's paprika chicken below would do nicely, and Yewande Komolafe's new doughnuts would be a glorious finale or party treat. As always, I'm here at dearemily@nytimes.com if you'd like to reach me. I love to hear from you.
