The beautiful words written above are a clear testament to my love of cookies! This sign is hanging in our kitchen as a beautiful reminder of one of the many blessings in this life the Lord has given us, cookies! I exercise on a very regular basis...and I eat cookies on a very regular basis. I have found that this is indeed the perfect combination of a balanced life.
This week as the country of Haiti has been on a more "relaxed" schedule, due to Carnival, I had the opportunity to do one of my favorite things. Make (and eat) cookies with a friend!
Lina and I got together at the first of the week to make chocolate chip cookies. I learned how to explain the steps to Nestle Chocolate Chip cookies in Creole. Lina became a master at the mixer (we only had a few sprays of cookie dough from an out of control mixer at too high of speed).
Over the past few months I have had the opportunity to get to know Lina. We attend the same church and work together on the jewelry project. Thanks to Lina I have become quite the expert at text messaging in Creole.
I look forward to many more gatherings of baking and friends. This is how I keep that skinny girl silent and happy :)
The cookie blog sounds delicious !! Glad you had time with Lina , and that you can explain the chocolate chip cookie recipe in Creole.
ReplyDeleteDoes Lina make jewelry ? I would love to see some of hers. Anita Champlin is helping sell the jewelry. Happy Valentine's Day !! Love you, Mommaw Peggy
