Halfway out of the dark ...

"It’s either kiss her or go back to your room making a new kind of screwdriver. Don’t make my mistakes."

Heads or ....

From Joey deVilla's blog:

A Psychological Tip

Whenever you’re called on to make up your mind,
and you’re hampered by not having any,
the best way to solve the dilemma, you’ll find,
is simply by spinning a penny.
No — not so that chance shall decide the affair
while you’re passively standing there moping;
but the moment the penny is up in the air,
you suddenly know what you’re hoping.

Holiday treat round-up

Icebox cookies

I like to make the dough and keep at least one or two rolled dough sticks in the freezer over the holidays. The cookies can easily and quickly be baked should you find yourself hosting unexpected company, or find yourself craving fresh baked cookies!
