Moving Right Along

I am so, sorry everyone for not updating last week's blog despite all my promises to do so. I really had hoped to get it done early the next day.
Unfortunately it turns out that two small children can drastically alter the best laid plans.

So all week I fought for time to work on that post with no success. And because of that I really didn't feel too comfortable with starting something new until I could finish what I had started.
I also didn't feel comfortable with adding on to the last post and not producing something new as well.
Which is why I am trying to continue last week's post but make it new somehow.

Here goes nothing...

Happy, Happy Birthdays

This weekend my husband's family and I are celebrating the birthday of a very special lady. My husband's grandma, a very sweet little lady (who actually reminds me of my departed Gran Gran) is turning 80 years young!
And because of course you simply can't have a birthday celebration without some yummy food to eat I offered to bring an assortment of cookies. I decided on just the fan favorites. Classic peanut butter, chocolate chip. That sort.

But I also wanted to do something extra and a little more birthday related.
Because, well, why not?

Dog Days

Once again I'm not doing a post about a cookie or any other kind of treat.
And I feel bad about that. Especially considering that that is what this blog is really supposed to be all about.
However, this is something that I am planning to incorporate into my future plans for Little Miss K's Cookies. So I hope you can all forgive me for going off topic.

This post is actually regarding something that has been very dear to my heart for quite a long time.
I am a huge believer in giving second chances. Sometimes, unfortunately, even when they aren't really deserved.
And I find that too many people are very afraid of giving second chances. Especially to shelter animals.
Until this past summer I had been a volunteer at the Winnipeg Humane Society as a dog walker. I very much miss going there every Saturday morning and seeing those dogs get so excited to be given the attention and love they crave from the staff and volunteers.
