I do take cookie requests!
A large tea pretty please.
Did chores and just worked on some things this morning
Did some baking so that's why I'm late with the cookies.
*filling big bird with oatmeal raisin cookies,, pecan divines, peanut butter and cranberry cookies and almond crunch cookies *
*filling cookie monster with oatmeal raisin cookies, blueberry crunch cookies, butterscotch crunch cookies and ginger snaps *
*giving fresh water and treats to the adorable mascots *
Hope everyone is having a great Thursday!

Thursday is made a lot better with your baking skill Angel. Thank you!

I usually get interested in something in history, or in personal improvement, etc. Then I find out what book(s) are considered the "best" in that area by those who live and work in that area. Finally, I find the one best book, and bury myself in it until I just about "wear it."

As for who is my favorite author, that is almost impossible, but Plato, Nietzsche, Shakespeare's Plays and Sonnets, William Butler Yeats, Tennyson, Hemingway, Dostoyevsky, Gogol, Patanjali, Laozi, Frederich Hoelderlin, Schiller, Dante Alighieri, and many, many others. It really depends on what area I am caught up in at the time.

Elizabeth: In your pic, some kind of photographic play is involved to show that something can be present in its absence, as long as it leave a sign of itself so its presence can be traced. This was a big idea in Europe about 100-125 years ago.
