I'm making breakfast cookies this morning - taking some to a new mom. the cookies are full of dried fruit, almonds, and oatmeal! also making a hot meal for them this afternoon.

---------- Post added at 10:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

dough is made - boy is it a tough one to stir at the end! and 4 trays are scooped, 1 tray in oven.

---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:08 AM ----------

okay - where is everybody??

my cookies are all baked - 9 trays of small cookies. last tray cooling before i transfer to rack. several trays already in a container. several cooling on racks.. and i used nonstick foil, so no pans to clean!

Default Re: Wednesday 5 minute challenge

I'm game. DH and I opted to watch a movie last night rather than be real grown ups, so my house is a disaster. And then, of course, no one did anything before they left for work... so I have a lot to get done. I've just finished my coffee so I should get to it.

My list:
Load dishwasher
Declutter counters
Wipe counters
Wash dishes
Sweep floor
High chairs
Finish laundry
Fold & put away laundry
Pick up living room
Pick up dining room
Find computer desk
Vacuum LR/DR
Whatever else messes get made while I clean these up

Nora wants to type : granny i love papa eden nora asher
