Well, I had the urge to bake – bake and bake and bake. It’s one of my very favorite things to do. I meditate and get into my “zone.”
With no where to go and the inability to deliver to my usual crowd, I baked up five dozen of these Peanut Butter Cinnamon Graham White Chocolate Cookies, bagged them up with bows, and kindly dropped at all the neighbors’ doors.
I believe they were well appreciated and consumed.
We all need more sweetness in our lives at this point, right?
