Bake-aholic

This morning was not what I wanted it to be. Having problems sleeping I found myself awake by eight. Not only was I awake but I had this very aware feeling of being all alone. Feeling alone is the worst, I didn't know what to do or who to call because I felt as though I had no one who I could bother. After having some various people text/call me for the same reason I decided today was going to suck so I might as well get on with it. Getting out of the shower, I realized I needed a game plan to keep my mind off being sad. So I chose to get reconnected with my love of baking. After whipping up two and a half dozen of the most beautiful oatmeal chocolate chip cookies I am feeling slightly better. Hopefully I can keep myself busy so I don't have to think about life. Also I hope I actually get more than five hours of sleep tonight. We'll see. Now some humorous pictures of the cookie making process to follow...

Mixing it up

Karlie's idea of helping...texting and asking when the cookies will be ready.

Then she got bored and made these "cookies" and insisted they were better than mine.

Even though mine looked like this. They were so beautiful and delicious! Yum!
