I believe . . .

“A hand-written recipe, covered with splatters is like a warm hug from the past.”

Some recipes are made so often, that the actual recipe is really not even needed. You place it’s dirty face on the work surface , so you can see the mixing, stirring & hear the voices & laughter from the past. This recipe is one of those treasures. It’s still the most requested cookie in my house!

Winter does give us a few perks. I believe that we don’t need to stress out quite as much, when it comes to our wardrobe.

1. We can just throw on a nice winter coat & a stylish pair of boots and we are set.

2. Toes don’t need to look perfect . . . nobody sees them.

3. Legs aren’t shaved quite as often, and we don’t seem to care.

Lastly . . . for me . . . the best perk of winter . . . a husband who is home earlier in the evening. Summer seems to kidnap him and forces him to work 16 hours a day. I have to be careful not to let myself sing the summer b-l-u-e-s. If you are or have been a farmers wife, then you can also relate to this feeling.

Dancing with a little pre- summer b-l-u-e-s . . . what should you do?

Make Orange rolls or Orange Coconut Pull-Apart Bread!
