My Blog is Useful

Yes, my blog is useful, at least to me. I know this because today I wanted to make a batch of chocolate chip cookies and couldn't find the recipe. I was getting my knickers in a twist about it until I remembered that I had posted the recipe on this here blog. So I came online, pulled up my own recipe and made my cookies.


I'm happy now. They are all packed away in a tin and ready to be put in the car and taken with us Saturday morning. That is if I can keep thieving paws off them until then.

Meanwhile I am doing the mundane. Copious amounts of laundry, dental appointments, groceries, sorting out who can feed the gerbils while we are away, blah, blah, blah. Sorry for being so boring these days. Promise that I will be back to sewing and insanity soon enough.

    I refer to my blog all the time for things just like this. It is a wonderful journal as well as a way to share your passions.
    Those cookies will never last until Saturday...not in my house anyway!

    I do the same with my blog if its any comfort, although I don't have scrummy recipes like yours on mine. Might try baking these with the kids to ward off the insanity of a week of rain

    Is it weird that the ordinary life posts are my favourites? I always feel like you relate more to the pretty making when you know a bit more about the person doing the making. Even if it is that she has gerbils. *g*

    Thank goodness you found the recipe! Now - where are my damn cookies ? Hogging them all for yourself is just plain rude.

    That's one reason I'm trying to add links to recipes as I post photos. I've found myself referring to my post on camera settings for taking moon photos too....so pleased to have the details recorded at easy reach.

    I love it! I use my blog for recipes precisely so that if I'm ever looking for them I can find them. If other people benefit that's a bonus.

    Well I'm glad it's useful to you, as clearly no one else is reading. Oh, wait....

    I've used my blog to find a random carrot soup recipe more than once. Cookies is better.

    I keep a few of my favourite recipes on my blog. It's always the easiest place to find them. Those cookies look great, are they going to last until Saturday?

    Yes, blogs are so handy that way! And the only way those cookies would keep that long in my house would be to put them in the very back of the freezer with everything else piled in front. Maybe. Have fun on your trip!
