Today was a professional development day, better known as a half day for kids, work for the teachers, but in our school it is BEST known for food. Yep, that’s right! You may be thinking that the teachers in our district get a lot of training so therefore the kids must be a lot smarter. [...]

One of the teachers at my school, Krystal, brought these delicious cookies to school for our Healthy Buffet. They, if you follow WeightWatchers, are 1 point each, which translate into diet friendly. These cookies were very moist and mouth watering. Very good Krystal! I found out today that Krystal made a little error while baking [...]

My son Steven came home for Christmas this year. Even though he is now a mature adult, he still remembers the aroma of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. After all, who in their right state of mind wouldn’t remember or desire them, especially when right out of the oven. Remember? Melted chocolate chips in a [...]
