Cooking? Baking? What's that?

Okay, so pretty much since we left Anaheim, I've done more of the cooking than Mom and that was never super often. But like now? This past year alone it's become almost nonexistent. And by cooking I mean simple meals, pasta, chicken and some simple rice or pasta, easy skillets, pre-made lasagna, etc,... All super easy meals with little to no prep required. Once in a while Mom'll cook something. And baking? Well, that's been a no go for like years now. :-(

Anywho... Now that we've survived the heat of summer, maybe I'll look into cooking again even if it is just simple stuff. But more importantly, this holiday season, I'll take up the mantle and bake one of Mom's traditional cookies. Well maybe. I still may chicken out of it for fear of screwing it up. :-P But every Christmas I MISS her variety of unique cookies. I may not make a lot, but I'll make enough to enjoy and if I'm successful, I may even make more to share with Nana.

Cookie of choice: Chocolate-pecan Acorn Cookies
(hopefully mine look like this)
