Today I am thankful for vacuum cleaners. LOL. Dog. Fur. Crumbs. Dust in general. 'Nuff said.
I've been noticing how far Orion (the constellation) has progressed in the sky when I get up to take Ember out for her first morning pee. A couple of months ago I blogged about Orion rising in those wee morning hours, now he's setting about sunrise.
I vacuumed out the X-Pen while Ember was napping.
The report on the cookies that went to son's family... foster kiddo likes them. We now have a request to repeat the "mistake" cookies for Christmas. LOL.
I had an eye doctor visit on Friday. There is a new prescription, post-cataract surgery #2. He says eye health is good, healed as it should. But I've been having double vision on the operated-on side, so the new glasses should help a LOT!
Life is good. Spark on!
Would you be willing to share the recipes for the "mistake" cookies? FYI...Gooey butter cake was a mistake made by a St. Louis baker years ago. In my part of Illinois, it was called cheesecake. The absolute best!!!
ReplyDeleteHope the new glasses do the trick!
Today I'm grateful that my taxes are paid and went out in this morning's mail. One more task completed before the new year.
Happy weekend!!! 🤗💖
I'll e-mail the recipe... it's pretty simple, really... make the batter as directed on the Oatmeal Scotchies bag, only instead of butterscotch chips, use a mix of milk chocolate and peanut butter chips (apparently, they sell this mixture in a bag and I picked it up thinking it was butterscotch chips). But I'll write it out for you, 'cause I didn't put in the orange zest as I normally do for the scotchies.
DeleteMy son was quoted by his wife as saying, "Yeah, they taste wrong, but they're still good". That captured my own feeling about them, too.

ReplyDeleteI’ve been watching Orion traverse the early morning southern sky, too. At first he chased the moon, then overtook it. Now he’s leapt over the apartment buildings and into the western sky. ❤️
Ohhhhh Ember looks so content with her bone. Good Ember!
ReplyDeleteGlad that the mistake cookies were NOT a mistake! And foster-kid approved . . . that's the real seal of approval.
Love looking @ the stars when out w/Miss Lilly early in the morning. So amazing!
Right @ freezing this morning. Looks like chances of snow all week. Dang! When Mother Nature decides to turn on Winter, she doesn't kid around!
Here's to a good Sunday
