I've figured out why I lose weight in the spring. I'm too tired to cook after I work outside, plus there's just too much to do. I need a house husband. I'll play in flowers, quilt, take care of the dogs and he can do everything else.
I'm enjoying my fresh vegetables today. I should go shopping more often. I do have to shop tomorrow because I'm doing cookies for my GGS's open house. I'm the cake baker, but I said I've retired from decorating cakes and this GD took me seriously. I am serious - it's too hard on my hands, but I would have done one this one. I have been obsessing about what kind of cookies - chocolate chip, of course, but what else? Betty Crocker sent a recipe to my email today. CC cookies with chocolate frosting topped with a mini pretzel. Sweet + salty and too cute! I will have to wait until I get there to frost them as I don't want to serve soggy pretzels. Another had CC oatmeal cookies with coconut pecan frosting (think German choc cake). Recipe was for canned frosting, but I'll make my own. I hate canned frosting. That and some Rice Krispie treats with green and gold decorations and I'm golden.
I ate well, I worked in the front flower bed, I walked the dogs, I drank lots of water and some yummy concoction - Arizona Tea with rhubarb and crushed strawberries. What else can I do besides have no candy between now and bedtime? Not much. I think I have it covered. Have a good evening, y'all. Off to FMQ.
