Sarabeth's Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

I picked one of the simplest recipes late yesterday afternoon out of my new Sarabeth cookbook. The oatmeal raisin cookies. The recipe in the book calls for sunflower seeds, but I didn't have any and used walnuts instead....and they turned out perfect....
i read this tip years ago...if your butter is cold, grate it...and it works pretty well.....


i threw everything into my mixer and let it go...

i am so IN LOVE with brown eggs. I would really like to get 3 chickens this SPRING but I am worried about my little stray kitty...Pixie Rose Marie...she is so skittish as it is I would be worried that chickens would scare her off....she has been here 3 years now...I always wonder what would have happened to her if I hadn't moved in here...




look at those for a jolt of THE HAPPY. my daffodils are opening up nicely.Sure makes it feel like SPRING in here.
