Cabin Fever!


Overnight we received a blanket of ice covered in beautiful snow. It was terrible to try to drive on (speaking from experience), but made for another great day together as a family. What to do when cooped up all day? Cook, of course! I was going to make cupcakes, but didn't have my cake mix, so we made cookies from scratch! I've never made the Nestle Toll House recipe from the back of the morsels bag until today, and they were a hit!

Elia paced back and forth with her hands folded behind her back in anticipation of the timer going off.

Still waiting...

First batch done!

Elia asked to put cookies in the muffin pan, and may I just say they were delish!
With a wind chill below zero, we bundled her up for a VERY quick snow angel.

Our daughter is in there somewhere, I promise.

Ready to collect the snow for a little snow ice cream! (She wanted to put it directly in the Radio Flyer, but mommy insisted on the zip lock bag)

Paula Deen's recipe is the best I've ever had!

She approves!
