Let's get this here blog going again...

I don't know about you but I miss my blog. I miss capturing the little things in my life that I know I will forget as time goes on so I'm going to try again by doing a gratitude journal here leading up to Thanksgiving. I will not promise to write every day but I'm going to try. And if you can't get on my blog to comment using Google Chrome, I'm sorry because I can't either. I also changed my layout because it would never let me do a new post in the old one. And now my photos are too big but at least I can post, right? Okay, enough whining...here are some little things I'm thankful for.

1. I'm thankful for finally finding the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe.  This chocolate chip cookie recipe is truly the best I've ever made. I've been going to my friend Susan's house for dinner on Sundays and when I ask everyone what they want for dessert, it's always this recipe. I don't know if it's the dark brown sugar, the chilling the dough overnight, the mini chocolate chips or all of those things but truly, you must make this cookie. We make them with an ice cream scoop (bake 12-13 minutes or until it's golden around the edges) and serve warm with a glass of milk. Heaven.

2. I'm thankful for an affordable and awesome foundation.  I have been using L'oreal's BB cream for the last month or so and I adore it. Excellent lightweight coverage - seriously try it.  I use medium, in case you were wondering what shade you should get. Available at Target, Walgreens or wherever for like $8.

3. I'm grateful for "Red" the new Taylor Swift cd, album, whatever it's called.  It's really good even though I'm not really in her target demographic.  I can't stop listening to it even though I really want to switch to Christmas music full time...soon...soon...
