I am going on a women’s retreat with my church today. I leave this afternoon. I should be cleaning. I should be doing laundry. I should be packing. I should be doing lots of things but what am I doing? I am baking. You may not realize that baking is just as important as all the other preparatory stuff if not more. You see what a women’s retreat really is, is a big slumber party for grown up girls. Though our days are filled with learning and growth, our nights are filled with talking, sharing, laughing, and eating. Eating good food is an important part of our time together. In my humble baking opinion, I believe good food promotes good conversation and good conversation promotes good friendship and good friendship promotes growth and well, isn’t that what a women’s retreat is all about? Growth. So these cookies that I am baking right now, they are very important cookies and must be made right now! After I finish baking them, I will get to all the other stuff…
Allie, too funny. I am just headed out and what did I do, make a giant batch of cinnamon rolls last night with tons of other stuff still needing to be done. It is pretty much a tradition for me to do a big baking project to take on trips with us! Have fun at your retreat.
You never cease to amaze me Dolly! These look so delicious. Not only are you an amazing cook but your photos are incredible. I especially love the first one of the cookies. And those children are absolutely adorable.
Please,please make these cookies for me!
I love getting to see pictures of the Grandkids. I miss them so much! The cookies look wonderful too! My kind of cookie, lots of oatmeal!
What totally yummy treats! Just loaded with goodies. I love m&m's in cookies – but I always eat them before I get to make them. I bet everyone loved them.
Mmmm, These look so yummy!!
You are a baking wonder goddess!
Everytime I bake these whoppers, or any of your other desserts, the compliments never stop! Thank you so much for your yummy, easy to follow recipes!
