It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like...FALL!

It's FALL!  The air is crisp, the leaves are changing, and all my favorite things to cook are HERE!

Case in point: I just made all of the following for a Kappa Delta Potluck:
Oatmeal cookies
Chocolate Chip Oatmeal cookies
Peppermint chocolate chip Oatmeal cookies
Caramel Oatmeal cookies
Coconut Chocolate Chip Oatmeal cookies
Cranberry Oatmeal cookies
and I think that's it.  Basically, I made 52 cookies....hopefully I won't eat them all before the Potluck tomorrow night...

I bake when I'm sad, stressed, or just in need of "me-time" and since my tendonitis in my hip is KILLING me, I couldn't run.  Frustration, anger, and sadness ensued...so I baked.  But it was SO worth it!  I love Oatmeal cookies (Can't you tell?)!!!

YUM

Wow

So it's been a very long time since I have posted anything.  And I mean a VERY long time.  School got very busy for a while and something had to go, and sadly it was blogging and cooking.  BUT two of my classes are done (night classes) so I have more free time.  And this means more cooking.  SO stay tuned because I'm going to be a baking/cooking machine!  Especially with fall foods.  I love pumpkin and other fall-type dishes.  So prepare for a whole lot of pumpkin!  Pie...bread...cookies...bars...soup?  We'll see!
