    True story. My husband asked me what I wanted to watch last night and I said “cookies” and he was like “you want to watch someone make cookies?” and I said ” no, I want to watch a plate of cookies just sitting on the counter.” and thats what we did.

      Now there’s a husband who knows how to get on board. Watching cookies sounds like a perfect escape right about now. 🙂

      We’re doing okay here, Dan, hope you are too. Think I’ll try to get outside some today and soak up some sun. 🙂

        I got out to walk the dog. We got back just before the torrential rain started. Enjoy the sun while you have it.
