Campfire Crazy


So we went to the lake but the ice was still too close to shore to fish. And we couldn't have a fire on the beach because it was far FAR TOO WINDY!!! So we found a nearby picnic shelter and had ourselves a picnic! :)



We had some hotdogs...



...roasted a few marshmallows...




... and just enjoyed sitting around by the fire - er - I mean stove?!

Happy Spring!


I'm playing homemaker today. I did dishes, laundry, tidied a little and made bread. The house is smelling so yummy! I start my new job at the HomeDepot tomorrow! :) So now I have bread to make sandwiches. Then I got creative and made some tags for some gifts for two of my friends (not telling who). I'm going down to garage after I post this to repair Terry's stool, it needs new foam. Terry wants to go down to the lake after work. Fish from the shore for the first time this season if the ice is far enough out and roast hotdogs on the campfire! So I might have some campfire stories for tomorrow. Happy Spring! :D

Chocolate Moose


The other day I was at IKEA and got some fantastic cookie cutters. I as particularly interested in the MOOSE! So I started looking for a recipe for brown cookies (other than gingerbread) that I could roll & cut. I found an amazing recipe for Chocolate Sugar Cookies on Christmas-cookies.com. Terry and I made them on Friday night, how romantic!? They are oh so delicious and the dough was really nice to work with.



As you can see we made quite a few different shapes. Including the cute little porcupine! :) TRY THEM!!!
