there, that's better

I woke up in a funk this morning. So, I took a hold of the situation, and after a bit of pot-banging while making breakfast, I made myself some cookies. World Peace Cookies. If I had some toffee on hand, I might have tried Alison's recipe, but that'll have to wait until the next trip to the grocery. Now I feel much better! One of my regular gripes around here is, "No one makes me cookies." It is only a half-hearted complaint, as I love to bake. But sometimes, when I haven't had the chance to, and I really could go for a treat, those words escape my mouth (unto deaf ears usually).

So, here I sit in the porch, Saturday afternoon, kitty in lap (achoo!), coffee steaming, cookies waiting, and some knitting looking for some attention. I hope your weekend is as beautiful as mine is turning out to be! Here, have a cookie!

Love the thought of each of us sitting on our porches knitting, nibbling and sipping coffee at time :) Thanks for the comment about the interview—Alana is very nice. I still feel weird listening to myself—very odd that. BTW, you do know that you were the dear friend that I mentioned in the interview who introduced me EZ and got me really going with my own knitting, right?

Hello Beautiful Beth!

I think your encaustic paintings are lovely. This is a medium that entrances me. Someday....maybe....I'll do it.

So nice to meet you Beth.
