What's A Snickerdoodle?

-

Sickerdoodles. MMMM. Have you ever had one? A Snickerdoodle is similar to a sugar cookie that is rolled in cinnamon and sugar. This cookie literally melts in your mouth! Recently, I've made them for our church and by popular demand, made them again! So, in case you're looking for a good/great holiday cookie recipe to try; here's one! Only 69 calories a cookie, that's awesome!

Now, just like every recipe does, this one has lies in it. When I made these cookies, mine only needed to bake for six minutes! SIX!! Maybe it's because we live in Florida and the ovens cook differently. Either way, just watch your cookies closely. I used a lot more cinnamon and sugar than they listed as well. Also, here are a few items you may want to go ahead and get out...

Cream Of Tartar= weird ingredient but it is necessary. Also a bowl of cinnamon and sugar, a cookie scoop to make things a lot easier, and a metal spatula. The only way I could get these cookies off of the pan was with a metal spatula. Maybe I should try using parchment paper next time. Remember, you have to chill your dough for at least an hour so don't make these if you're in a rush! Enjoy!

Jude was an excellent helper!

Jude's Little Blue Truck Party

Little Blue Truck Almost every day, Jude enjoys the rhythm and rhymes of a particular book about a little blue truck. This truck and a few adorably illustrated farm animals help a mean old dump truck ( HOOOONK ) learn a valuable lesson about making friends. We all need friends and the right kind; that is for certain. He can finish almost any phrase, make all the animal sounds, and turn each page as we snuggle together. We treasure those moments and hearing his animated "beep, beep, beep!" Since this little dude has such an attachment to the "Little Blue Truck" by Alice Shertle, we decided that it would be the perfect theme for his second birthday party. I tried not to go over-the-top since Jude could care less about all the matchy decorations. I get it. However, just as I thought, he LOVED the blue truck on his cake! I'm so glad his gaze stopped on the cake for two seconds to notice it... he wouldn't quite settle down until that truck was on th...

Grief, Glory, and Guacamole

Florida Herrons May, 2018 To my friends who have shared this little blog with me over the past ten years, thank you!   There's a part of me that has been avoiding writing lately because I didn't know where to start. My heart has been heavy this year. Moments where you stop and pray ;  But you, O LORD, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. (ESV Psalm 3:3) So, as I begin to blog again I feel the need to clarify something; transparency is not my goal here. I hesitate to focus on simply being transparent because it's important for me not to shortchange the TRUTH of God's word and lordship over my life. Another head-nodding in affirmation is nice but I need Jesus. I need the power of His word.  My aim is to glorify the Lord and tell of His faithfulness. After all, " For  we are his workmanship,  created in Christ Jesus  for good works,  which God prepared beforehand,  that we should walk in them . (ESV Ephes...

Let the nesting begin! We have been so thrilled to be able to start putting the baby room together! Thanks to Blake's workmanship and our wonderful Leigh Ann and Lonas, we now have an assembled crib and changing table for little baby boy!  little kitty is not allowed in baby's room i was a super tool holder! the changing table was a lot harder to assemble than the crib! Thanks to the wonderful world of Pinterest I have been able to successfully organize many creative ideas for our little baby boy nursery!! I definitely do not want to get carried away but I LOVE making little creative projects.   Our crib!! Room idea #1 our crib :) also, we are probably going to paint the nursery this color! I'll be hanging some lanterns too! We are SO thankful that Blake's amazing momma,"Granna," will be making the baby bedding for us! It makes me kind of sad that sewing is a dying art but it's so cool that we'll have a li...
