Well…I must say, I had the most enjoyable morning, that I have had in quite some time. I was not out to coffee with girlfriends… I was not getting pampered at the salon… It didn’t even involve a credit card...(I know, hard to believe) Actually, I can say, with quite a satisfied smile, I didn’t even leave my house. Yes, these few moments of bliss … this total gratification… these feelings of intoxicating gladness …took place in my” humble, little kitchen”.
I MADE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!!
“Oh my”, you say … “Is it possible to be so easily pleased”…”Can she be ill”?…”Has she finally lost what little mind she had left”? ...Hmmm (could be)

Well…It has to be said, when our lives get so busy, that we forget the simple pleasure of combining flour, sugar, butter and a few chocolate chips, we really should sit down and take a breath. I had been taught” to judge my day on how much I get accomplished”. On how many “to-do’s” I can cross off the list…It’s all “well and good” to be ambitious…but lets not lose sight of what’s really important. Maybe it’s time for us to simplify our busy lives…Take time to bake cookies…
and enjoy a little R & R…
