happy sunday!

the married life: our first october

this is home

remember these?

forever your lucy

picture yourself in a boat on a river,

with tangerine trees and marmalade skies

somebody calls you, you answered quite slowly

a girl with kaleidoscope eyes

lucy in the sky with diamonds

- the beatles

maybe it's the rain drops that keep falling from the sky

the dew that seems to linger in the air

or the gloomy symptoms that come with every medication these days

but i'm thinking of you today

and i miss you so

you, my mow-mow

i, your lucy

forever your lucy

the best chocolate chip cookies you will ever eat!

shortbread chocolate chip cookies

you will need:

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup unsalted butter

1/2 cup white sugar

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

this is what you do:

{if your a cook like myself, get ready to make a mess}

preheat oven to 300 degrees

 together combine flour, baking powder and salt, then tell it to sit there and look pretty awhile.

{if your a cook like myself, you talk to your ingredients and dishes}

husby thinks i'm silly

in a medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy. gradually stir in

the dry ingredients, then stir in the chocolate chips.

roll or scoop dough into walnut size balls. place them on unprepared cookie sheets.

don't flatten cookies, let them be!! 

bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until light golden brown

taaadaaa!

if you don't think this is bad, you should have seen the other side of the kitchen!

ca ca tooey!

i'm sorry i haven't written much lately, i don't mean to disappoint it's just i've been dealing with some health problems once again. yes, again. i tried to write a little the other night but then i started feeling sorry for myself and i ended up erasing the whole thing. it's just hard to write when you feel the world is sitting on your head weighing you down to the ground. 

so now i'm back where we started, and that is back on anti-biotics. the very moment i felt the doctor was going to say anti-biotics i cringed because they mess up everything. and the side effect symptoms are always worst than your actual problem. needless to say, i feel like ca ca tooey and there's nothing for me to do about it but suck it up and take the meds.

i will be fine. and i will get better. no worries.

end of sappiness, i promise.

the moral of this story is, where there's sappiness there is also happiness, meaning my husby. my soft place to fall.  he takes good care of me, especially during times like these.

 i love him for that.

keeping it real

i love you too husby wusby
