A Little of This, A Little of That - Day 311

Baking cookies is a pretty sweet way to start the day. Tonight Mike and I are traveling to Gainesville for a party at Margaret's house. I can't go empty handed, so I decided cookies and wine would be the perfect hostess gift. I wanted to make something fun to reflect Margaret's personality. "This and That Cookies" were the perfect choice. This is a recipe that is always changing with my mood and the items left in the pantry. To my base dough I added white, semi-sweet and bittersweet chocolate chips, dried blueberries and toasted pecans. A little of this, a little of that and hopefully a lot of good.

Work at Costco followed the theme of the day...a little of this, a little of that. I met some wonderful people. Louie from South Africa oozing with excitement for the World Cup. Lilla and Chuck, fellow foodies with great tips to share. The Costco love birds flying around overhead. Tastings of pita chips, chicken tenders and Canadian bacon washed down with Vitamin Water. Blog writing, Mike's birthday plotting, wine aisle stocking, wine consulting and oh yes...Montepulciano d'Abruzzo wine selling mixed in between it all. A little of this, a little of that and a whole lot of fun.

Many hugs,

Kathy
