Have Your Cake & Eat it Too!

As a Mommy of three and wife of 11 years, my daily routine is a whirlwind. In an effort to carve out some "me time" and explore a creative outlet, I have picked up a new hobby. Baking! This blog highlights my journey into baking and chronicles my sporadic adventures.

Boys Love to Cook Also! More Chocolate Chip Cookies!

Since the girls had the chance to bake cookies recently, Griffin expressed a real interest in whipping up a batch himself so we took advantage of his day off from school to make REAL chocolate chip cookies without the mint!
We used the recipe in the cookbook "Cookies" instead of our usual chippits package of chocolate chips recipe.
