cookie monsters

One of the biggest blessings since being back in Mexico is that I now have a stove with a working oven!  While not a great cook, I do enjoy baking & do alright at it... & because stoves are very rare in homes here, homemade baked goods are quite a treat!  Baking cookies (as well as cheesecake, birthday cake, lasagna cake, etc) has become a delicious stress-reliever for me, something fun to do with friends or the neighbor kids, & a great way to bless those around me!

PS - Dear CaRe co-workers: despite the great excitement over the cookies, I don't think anyone could truly appreciate my famous chocolate chip cookies as much as you all did...  Miss you!
