Bakin' Cooookies

Okay, in my head, I'm saying the title of this post like Rob Schneider as Rich (the 'making copies' guy) on SNL. :)

The girls and I have a batch of snickerdoodle dough in the fridge. I used the recipe on the website joyofbaking.com. (destined to become one of my favorites - I love to bake). We won't be home tonight so we'll bake them tomorrow and I'll report back on how they taste. I can tell you that the dough tastes great. Yeah, I know salmonella and all that (I don't eat cookie dough when I'm pregnant, is that a decent compromise?). I'm such a horrible mother, I even taught my girls to lick the beaters. I make them beg before I'll give them the beaters, though. Only Elizabeth and Nin get them. Annie is still too little. ;)

Tonight is the first night of our study of The Law of Kindness. I'm looking forward to it. But I'm sure it'll be convicting because I am far from kind. A couple of the weeks are probably going to be very difficult for me - The Kind Wife and the week we discuss Parenting with Kindness. I know I've talked here before about how I desire to have a tender heart toward my family and I don't always. I'll let you know how it goes.

Call me when the cookies are just about done;) Snickerdoodles are one of my faves! May have to make up a batch.

I want to hear about the study. I have too many conflicts to do the study at church, but I may want to read the book later.

Oh! And Snickerdoodles are my absolute FAVORITE cookie!

Mmmm snickerdoodles! Save one for me please. :)

I hope you do enjoy the study. It sounds very interesting.

I saw poor Nin's forehead too. I'm glad she's okay and that you got a good Ped. to deal with her. And, he's right, she is very cute!
