I am in my own personal hell...

I dropped my cell phone with a ton of blog pictures on it.  Now I am only left with my iPad for food shots.  I now have to either pay $600 for a new phone, or stick it out until my contract renews in early December.   Sigh, what is a girl to do?  I am also teaching....math. For a month long gig at the high school I am diving head first into the world of alternate interior angles and slopes.  With not cell phone in my pocket to conveniently google things. But being intrepid, I am pushing on and having a Halloween get together with a few friends on Friday.  I will try to figure out my picture situation by then....

My mother let me do this to the front lawn.

Happy October people.

National Homemade Cookie Day

We celebrate two of my favorite things today: cookies and my friend Wolfie.  In honor of her birthday, I whipped these up: the Mast Brothers pecan maple chocate cookies.  They are cooling as we speak and will then have a date with the US Postal Service and the city of Chicago.
