New Year Cookie Excitement and More!


Happy 2012! May God bless you abundantly this year!

As we settle in to the new year, I am really focusing on being thankful. Thankful for who I have in my life, and thankful for the things that I am blessed with. I have spent (wasted)so much time on the other side of that fence. It is not easy!

Each day is a gift. Every breath, every moment, every experience. I will change how I live my life. That change is starting now. I have always appreciated "simple". I desire a simple life. I am going to take time, each day, to appreciate the small things, that so many times I have been too busy to even notice! Are you with me?

So today, I stared at the five lemons on my counter, and realized how thankful I am that i have an abundance of lemons on my tree! It is January. Most of our country is frozen and gray. It was 80 all week here in Sunny California. I am thankful for those lemons! I needed to do something with them!

LEMON CRINKLES! I had pinned a recipe a few days back that I saw on Pinterest. I pulled it up, gathered all the ingredients (not even needing a trip to the store) and joyfully made some cookies. Here is the link to the recipe:

They are so yummy! Make them today, and share them with someone you love. You will be glad you did.
