chocolate chip cookies

i like trying out new recipes...

today, not so much.

this cookie recipe was somewhat tasty, but dry

and a bit hard.

i know how to mix a cookie dough properly

but, this recipe itself wasn't the right one i was looking for.

i wanted ooey-gooey goodness

i wanted a brown sugary bite.

[at least the pictures looked good!]

here's to trying new things!

cheers.

always, yellow button.

more scones?!

all i do is bake scones.

scones and scones..

and sometimes scones.

but really, i enjoy knowing that all types of people

will walk into the coffee shop on main street this morning,

& see my scones sitting in a basket, ready to be eaten.

this morning; blue lemon scones.

happy day :)

yellow button cookies

i didn't mean to wait so long to post, but i've been dealing with a.LOT.

almost bought a business...what?

yeah, awkward. but i know that i didn't buy it because it's not...mine.

not my idea.

not my color scheme.

not my dream.

other opportunities will come around.

im sure of that.

while dealing with all of this stress, little green bird has been so encouraging.

sending valentine love my way [heart cookies!]

and original handmade yellow button stud earrings! AH!

& also just coaching me through whatever i'm facing.

thank you, missy. be on the lookout for a special package coming your way!

my 'yellow button bake shoppe' [one day] will feature these cookies.

they will be my signature item.
