Have you missed me? The motivation to sit down and blog has disappeared. Check out what my cherished friend has been up to. Tomorrow is her birthday. She's all the way across the country. I miss her.

My friend Sam (there's no link. . .hmmmm. Sam, please start blogging) just got a Kitchenaid Mixer. I'm so happy for him. He's asked for recipes. I think I'll pass along my grandma's oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe -- well, my slight variation. I've been told they're pretty good.
