{Dog. Meets. World} December Gratitude Challenge

“I hate to hear you talk about all women as if they were fine ladies instead of rational creatures. None of us want to be in calm waters all our lives.”
― Jane Austen, Persuasio

Thankful today for rough waters, the strong women in my life and in the world, for my strong daughter and for my son who loves strong women.

"The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you've got to have a what-the-hell attitude."
— Julia Child

This is how we spend MEA break at our house folks. Chocolate chip cookie making in PJ's with Halloween cut outs. Lots of fun but the end result looks nothing like the cut out bat, cat and pumpkin. In fact, some ended up as blobs or blended into one gigantic cookie mural. Hence the reason for cut out cookie dough recipe I suppose.... No complaints from the young set...





Then randomly a few more from our vacation during MEA. Couldn't resist posting these.
