Today....

Hey all y'all....
So today was a lazy sort of day.. Only extra thing I really did was clean the kitchen.. YUCK....
 It was chilly-cold, gray and cloudy out so no fun in the sun for us...
While Hannah was napping I got a huge craving for SOFT.. CHEWY... YUMMY snickerdoodles! So goggled it... And  OH MY GOSH... Did I find a great recipe!!!
They are perfect and was exactly what I was craving...

Here is the full recipe.. I followed it to a tee... Umm well not exactly! I halved the recipe!! Besides that followed it exactly..
Super Soft Snickerdoodle Cookies
makes about 3 dozen cookies
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
3 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 teaspon vanilla extract
For the cinnamon sugar:
1/4 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Heat the oven to 425°F. Gently melt the butter in a saucepan or in the microwave and let it cool while you mix the dry ingredients. Stir together the sugars, flour, spices, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the eggs into the cooled butter and add the vanilla. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until it comes together.

In a soup plate or shallow bowl, mix together the white sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Form small 1 1/2-inch balls of dough and roll them in the cinnamon sugar. Place them on an unlined, ungreased baking sheet and flatten slightly. Bake for 7 minutes then remove and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Remove to a wire rack.

And then there was a moment this afternoon the sun peeked through the clouds and  right into my living room.. And Hannah started havin' a fit cause the sun was blocking her view from the wonderful Jake and the Neverland Pirates... hahahahaha... Sooooo I shut the living room curtains... And got freaked out..
Oh crap a cockroach....
Yep.. it is a huge cockroach.. However the secret here... It's NOT on the other side of the curtain...
It's... INSIDE of the curtain.. It's dead.. But it's there... Just hanging out! And for the life of me I can't figure out HOW the little bugger got in there!!! And more importantly...
 I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET HIM OUT!!!!
Akkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!! Advice? Input? Any ideas?
Anyway...
~*~Be Blessed and Be A Blessing~*~

  1. Those cookies sound so good! I could totally go for a warm, soft snickerdoodle cookie right now! And as for the cockroach, yuck! But at least he/she is dead! Lol maybe you should leave it there as a warning to it's friends and family members. Bahaha!
