Chocolate Fix

It may not have been such a good idea for the diet, but it was great for the cravings.  Hubby and I both have been in the mood for some cookies, so I finally caved and baked some up last night.  They’re just your regular Toll House chocolate chip cookies with a little baking cocoa and chocolate/caramel swirl chips added.  And?  They are delicious.  I can’t wait to get home and eat some more.

I feel I’ve really been slacking on the blogging this week.  My mind has been going in so many other directions that I’ve had a really hard time stopping long enough to actually put together a decent post.  I have some things floating around in my head, including Zach’s 20 month letter/update, but I just can’t seem to find the time to sit down and focus.  When I do write, I just feel like I’m throwing things together (like in this entry).  My in-laws even commented on the phone last night that I haven’t updated my family site in a while.  Guess I need to work on that.

I have finally gotten myself together and added a new feature over there on the far right sidebar. Thanks to Google Reader, I am now sharing some of my favorite blog posts. Take a look over there underneath the gorgeous pictures of my son to see what I’ve been enjoying lately.

This weekend is shaping up to be a busy one for us.  We have plans to have dinner and hang out with friends tonight, another friend’s band to see Saturday night, and an after church lunch/surprise baby shower on Sunday.  That pretty much leaves me only Saturday morning and afternoon to relax and I need to spend that time finishing up the baby blanket I’m making.  I just hope that Zach holds up well with the busy weekend.  He seems to need a lot of relaxation/mommy time here lately and I won’t be able to give him much of that when I’m running all over the place.

And, that’s all I’ve got for now.  Go have a cookie and enjoy your weekend!
