Devoted

I haven't been doing much cooking lately and the little club I joined is having some tech malfunctions so there's not a whole lot of exciting news on that front. I did make some wonderful Oatmeal Honey cookies with Mint and Cranberries. Sounds like an odd mix but they were quite good. There is a bit of a texture thing with them, though. Everyone that had them said the first bite made them think that they wouldn't like them and then, as they chewed, the flavors came alive in their mouth and they wanted another! So a little tweeking in order and no pics at this moment. Maybe later.

Spring is on its way, despite the icy crust of snow that covers the ground right now. The daffodils are peeking their heads up and testing the air, the birds have succumb to thier natural urges and are busy making nests to complete thier mission for spring, even the bunnies are on the move!

At work, we have our first plugs arriving and some of the new merchandise we ordered for spring is arriving and making it a little more hopeful that at some point in the not so distant future we will emerge from our offices and our eyes will have renewed vision as browns turn to emerald and lime greens, red, purples and yellows open their arms to soak up the rays of sun, and the birds serenade the whole performance. I can't wait!
