playing

I've been playing in the kitchen a lot lately - mostly baking, but some cooking. I made a little recipe for brown sugar cinnamon raisin cookies, and modified it today to make sugar cookies. I'm thinking about adding apples next time. <.g> It's fun. No set recipe yet, because I generally just make enough for 3-4 cookies. (Downside of living alone - no one to eat what you make!) But I substitute in applesauce for most of the butter, and add in vanilla yogurt and it's really quite tasty.

Of course, that all leads to eating too much. I really need to find things to do with my time than cook/eat. I need fabric or something, do some more sewing in addition to my quilting. I think I'll go work out a little after I finish typing this up.

Joshy still needs lots of happy thoughts and prayers. I don't know what we're going to do. He has an appt with his orthopedic doctor on Wednesday, but most likely he'll say it's up to us. Mom can't take care of a post-op Josh by herself - it's physically impossible. That would suggest spring break, so I could help. Which cancels out any plans I may have been able to make, and also takes Josh out of commission for my graduation. Which means mom couldn't go, either, and that would upset me very much, for purely selfish reasons. Other choice would be summer, but that takes out swimming as a PT tool, which is so beneficial. It's chock full of sucky choices.

Poor mom - all of her stressors are converging at once. But she's still at nearly 2 months of no smoking or alcohol, so good for her! She's handling it pretty well, with the aide of diet vanilla coke. <.g> Hopefully once we get past this week, it'll smooth out for her.

Back to the clinic at 3:30 today, for the second session with K. I've already been there today for a meeting on E, which is kind of annoying. LOL Oh, well. Should be fun.

thanks for linking me.

also, i went to fifth, sixth, and seventh grade with lance. he had a bowl cut. and he was very short.

No problem! I was exploring links one day and stumbled on your place. I liked it. Your design is lovely, BTW.

And really? Neat. But a bowl cut? Poor kid. Even my mom didn't insist on that past preschool. LOL
