A Cookie Kind Of Day.

So yesterday I complained about the cool cloudy weather, little did I know that we would wake this morning to snow, and I am not going to complain two days in row that would just be rude.

Not just a dusting of snow there was enough that we had to clean the front window of the car before we left for Saturday morning breakfast.

Why breakfast out?  

We do not have a coffee maker as an incentive to walk for coffee in the morning and I am not walking in snow! (Not complaining much)

I am a maker because only a maker would have a craft in their bag to do while you wait for your breakfast.  Here I am fussy cutting paper to go into junk journals.

I started this post stating that it was a cookie kind of day it was also a hot drink kind of day and you need a cookie – it is a must right?!

Grandma’s cookie jar is full again.

After the cookies were finished we took a few things over to the Salvation Army and while there Paul found this wooden tray and he is going to put braces on it to go over the wheel cover of our Rpod to hold morning coffee when we are camping

I finished making up my pen pal parcels for Lucas and Clara and just as I finished they video called to show me that their Easter packages arrived.  Canada Post delivered them to the neighbour’s home and they just got around to getting them to the children.
