Lifes Simple Pleasures

Recommended Posts

One of lifes most wondrous pleasures is checking the cookie jar for a couple weeks, each and every day, and nothing is in it, I have then given up on the effort but still check the jar every other day now, then I just give up on it altogether. Then, for old times sake, I check it just for the heck of it, and it's full of home made Chocolate Chip cookies! I am serious, my world is completely fine today.

 

Life has been throwing a few curve balls at us lately, my cookie jar has been empty, I awoke early today and laid in bed for a few minutes in the quite of the morning while the rest of the gang slept, I prayed to God, I asked for enlightenment and put all my trials and worries in HIS hands, I then got up in the darkness and walked my home and checked on the sleeping babes, and I then started my morning. And just now, I did my cursory cookie jar check and it was full. I know GOD did not make the cookies, but I think He has something to do with it. :)

 

By the way, breakfast? You really have to ask! Hey, cookies have all the food groups in them don't they? Specially with a big glass of milk.
Have a wonderful day friends.

4 AM has come and gone and, here I sit. All alone in the shop. Plenty of coffee and a dozen or so cookies in a bag on the bench. But, nobody to help me eat 'em.

Oh, well. I guess I'll have to.

Sorry you're missing out, John.:(

I'm sorry too, Gene, but after two hard days of work, I had to get my beauty sleep. Maybe next Sunday.

I thought cookies were a food group!

They certainly are. I made a big batch of oatmeal raisin yesterday. Now, think of it this way; oatmeal is roughage and helps to lower Cholesterol (http://www.care2.com/greenliving/oatmeal-everyday-powerfood.html), raisins are a great source of iron (https://www.organicfacts.net/health-benefits/fruit/health-benefits-of-raisins.html), cinnamon is great for revving up the metabolism (http://www.organicauthority.com/health/11-health-benefits-of-cinnamon.html). Now tell me how my cookies aren't good for you!
