Sunday ~
Religious Education, Cheddars, Nap, Chapel Service, Ice cream - that's it.
OK....maybe I can fill it out a bit more than that.
Jamin made the dough for 7 15 in pizzas and 3 pan pizzas...tucked safely into the freezer. He's been working on adapting my Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
He uses white chocolate, almond flavoring and almonds. Yumm!!! Cy made a "monster cookie" with them tonight...I made a "mini".
It's been a bit of a "blah" type day...not a bad day...sort of a low energy day. At 7 weeks of Mike being gone, I think it is setting into my psyche that this is NOT going to be the normal 4 - 6 week trip. I feel a bit unsettled thinking of how much time is still left before he is home. It's when your husband is gone that you realize how much of your strength you pull from him. This is good, because God is wanting me to draw it from Him. I miss him.
I tried to call the girls and my folks and can't reach them either.
Please understand that though this is a low energy, high emotion day - I'm still deliberately choosing joy.

The cookies sound great! I'm planning some Tic Tack Toe mix this week for my white chocolate.lol I'm starting to get the baking itch. Not good, for a big fat pregnant woman!lol
LOL I was thinking this week that I needed to see if I could adapt the tic tac toe mix to be FG friendly and MOM approved....
Well, you may have to leave the boxed chex cereal out but maybe put in pretzels, raisins, peanuts, and maybe some of that new organic Rice Crispies and some organic M&M's if you have them.LOL
Lisa...I have the organic m/m's believe it or not. Heather even bought 5# of the kinds with PEANUTS when she was in the big town for me. Shop Natural only sells plain. I have the organic cereals...it's the white chocolate that I'm wondering about.
I laughed the other day because I bought the kids a little cup of yogurt covered pretzels and they loved them. They thought they were the old chocolate ones. This made me wonder if you can buy a yogurt covering mix....or what I'm going to do about holiday yummies if I can't use the chocolate and white almond bark.....it's the artificial flavors in them.
Ghirardelli sells the white chips. I've already bought some.lol I would think they would be FG approved but I'm not really sure. I need my TTT mix!
Ghiradelli was going to be my first spot to check. I know that most of their chocolate and chips are made with pure vanilla, no synthetics.
BUT I know that there was one brand (and my sleep deprived memory is foggy) who made an o.k. chocolate chip and their white chip was bad.
I just looked them up in my FG list and the white chips are on the list! Enjoy!
Lisa
LOL - you're great Lisa, thanks!
LOL No problem, De'Etta! I thought they were o.k., that's why when considering TTT mix, I didn't even give the chips a second thought. I was more worried about the cereal.lol
OH if it's FG you are wanting - Crispix is on our food list. I will substitute that for the chex.
De'Etta! Thanks! I forgot about those.
