I love home made chocolate chip cookies, yours look good.

Our low last night was 15, which is unheard of here on the Oregon Coast though I know that's not even considered cold for other places. There is ice on the bay right now, which is incredible to see.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17016439610436864684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7944740176048431569.post-32042026395634127812009-12-08T10:51:22.772-08:002009-12-08T10:51:22.772-08:00Ask Brandon if he can deliver some of those cookie...Ask Brandon if he can deliver some of those cookies to me??? lol Wow, he really did do a great job baking them. No doubt both boys enjoyed helping you decorate the tree as well.<br /><br />It's been really cold here too lately and tomorrow we're supposed to have our first big snowstorm of the Winter, 25 to 30 cm of snow is expected. I do hope it won't be as severe as they're predicting! Yikes!! I'm hoping the weather is good on Fri, Sat. & Sun. as Steve and I want one more trip to NF before Christmas. It's the drive from Sudbury to Barrie that has me nervous...he drives the rest of the way! lol Niagara on the Lake is having their Santa Claus parade on Saturday so we want to go to that, as well as the Candlelight Stroll Saturday evening. If you guys want to join us you're more than welcome, you know that:-) xoxoCarole Buranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497329055251626140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7944740176048431569.post-8590979210213804212009-12-08T05:45:12.041-08:002009-12-08T05:45:12.041-08:00Decorating a Christmas tree with the smell of cook...Decorating a Christmas tree with the smell of cookies in the air at Grandmas.

When I went away with my second daughter, he called and said the students were collecting for the Sri Lanka Tsunami and he wanted to give away the tree as we would be returning to New Zealand.<br /><br />What do or what can I do over the phone. I said yes, and then we didn't buy another tree. Now i got 4 live trees in the garden.<br /><br />Bet the choc chippy cookies were great.Ann, Chen Jie Xue 陈洁雪https://www.blogger.com/profile/04399207312968010460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7944740176048431569.post-59614848299960439922009-12-06T21:12:55.164-08:002009-12-06T21:12:55.164-08:00the cookies look really good.
