Comforting Things

 

 

I made these salted (sea salt!) chocolate chip cookies.  I ate three (okay, five!) and gave them to the guys across the street.  I thought they were DELICIOUS, but I have an outrageous SWEET TOOTH and really love sea salt.  While I was in San Francisco, I noticed so many things with sea salt.  I wonder what the guys thought of these cookies? I kind of went crazy with the sea salt, but I think I'll make them again.  I loved them, and one person's opinion (especially mine) counts!

 

 

Goal:  Find and buy one of those awesome collapsible chairs with the two drink holders and keep it on my front porch area so I can sit and watch the sky more often.  I've been reading Desiring God by John Piper.  Great book, deep theological thoughts.  The concept of God is very hard to grasp- His character that is so different than ours, but I find looking at the sky to be the clearest answer to His glory. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and lastly, sometimes you need a picture of puppy dogs to cheer you up.  I've had a serious case of puppy fever (is this related to baby fever?).  I literally sit at my computer and scroll google images of puppies, and I dream about the puppy smell and having my own sweet puppy! A lot of my friends are "cat people", and I am an unabashed dog lover.  I've tried to understand cats, I've tried to give them attention, but my heart is with dogs.  Hoda Kotb recently said that dog lovers are proven to be the most fun type of people, so I guess that explains it all.  Just kidding! Actually, cat lovers are the most dependable, so we all have our great traits.  Here's one I love:
