Snowing here

Not too much snow...   my courtyard garden is sleeping

sidewalks and roadways are clear; it hasn't been cold enough to cover everything

here is the view from my fourth floor bedroom window.

heavy traffic at the birdfeeders on my windowsills, though I can't get close enough to photograph them.

In the meantime, I have been baking lots of cookies.  Fifteen different kinds, and at least seventeen batches.  I made the dough and froze it  gradually over the last six weeks.  Then I began to bake about two weeks ago.

The batches of 2019 :

Molasses Sugar Cookies

Toll House Cookies

Peanut Butter Blossoms

Magic Cookie Bars

Date Walnut Cookies

Sugar Cookies

Snickerdoodles

Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies

Russian Teacakes

Apricot-Almond Chews

Amaretti Morbidi

Oatmeal Gems

Green Spritz Cookies

Cinnamon Pecan Toffee Cookies

Rice Krispie Treats  ( still to do)

So the freezer is packed with tins of cookies:

We'll start making plates of these and giving them out to:

Villa Sisters           Caritas Community                    Charlene                Carla

Nurses Station on 3 G                Nurses Station on 3C       Seton Shrine Employees

George and Robin Brenton                  Associates on Ground Floor of G Wing

Physical Therapy Dept.              Grounds Dept.                 Dietary (Kitchen)         

         

Power Plant Dept.                  Maintenance Dept.               Transportation Dept. 

Those cookies disappear pretty quickly!

This is so much more life-giving to me than stressing about Donald Trump and the danger to our country.
