ANOTHER FUNNY GRACIE STORY

Gracie is always keeping us laughing, if I post it on here then I remember it better!

We were sitting at dinner & I don't remember why but Gracie told me I needed to go to 'time-out'. I said I would love to. I then went on to say that she would have to clean up dinner & give herself & Cassidy a bath & on & on. Before I even finished my sentence, this was her response "...uh, you can go to time-out after I go to bed"
Bummer! A time-out sounded so nice!

ANOTHER PATHETIC ATTEMPT

Well friends, I tried making cookies again. I don't know if you remember my previous cookie post, but I do not make cookies! For Christmas Gracie is making cookies in a jar to give as gifts for people. So, before we gave them away I wanted to make them to make sure that they were good. BAD IDEA! I don't know why I even tried. I followed the directions exactly, used butter, which is what some of you recommended after my last post & they still didn't turn out. You can't tell in the picture but they are flat, almost paper-thin. Here is the ridiculous result:



Oh well, at least cookie dough is good!
