Hi folks.
I apologize for no post last week. I was quite distracted preparing for a craft show.
And this coming week is a huge deal to my little family so this post is going to be short and there may not be one at all again next week. We shall see.

I am mostly just writing tonight to explain away my lack of posting last week and to offer a vague excuse for a lack of post next week. Those who know my family are aware of what is going on. I will not say anything more than it is a personal family situation.

Now, to give you all some hope.
I am doing some Pinterest scouring while I try to figure out what my next post could be about.

The Swirly Kind

So I'd like to start off by saying that this post took way longer than I had planned to prepare because a) I forgot to do it yesterday and b) my baby decided that she absolutely did not want to sleep tonight.

Now, moving right along here.

This fun cookie is a favorite of both my husband and my father-in-law. And they are affectionately known as 'the swirly kind' by both of them.
These, my fine folks, are pinwheel cookies!
(I apologize for the lack of pictures at the moment. They are sitting in my fridge overnight waiting to be baked still.)

I originally found a recipe for pinwheel cookies on Pinterest (surprise, surprise!) but found that I really didn't like how they turned out. And I mean I really didn't like them.
The cookie dough was crumbly, was very difficult to roll out and the cookies turned out dry.
Not yummy at all.

Practice Makes Perfect

I know this post is coming late. Again. (Argh!)
But unfortunately I had one of those nights last night where no matter what I did I just could not keep my eyes open. The moment I stopped moving I was darn near snoring. Really made for an unproductive night. It's a miracle I got my dishes washed!

I'm writing about something I've been wanting to improve on for quite a long time.
