It's no coincidence that the title of this blog refers to cookies...I ♥ cookies. Actually, I like all kinds of sweets, but cookies are special. Cookies are love. I hate to cook, but I like baking cookies. Usually when I make them it's to give them away. A gift of homemade cookies always seems to be appreciated, and I think it's something not many people do anymore. My friend Karin has even bartered with homemade cookies.Sometimes we forget that simple things can touch a heart and show how much we care. It might be easier to just buy packaged cookies, but they never taste as good, or mean as much, as ones you make yourself. A gift of homemade sweets is a gift from the heart. So if I make you cookies, it's my way of telling you that I care about you. If you're one of those weird people who doesn't like them (inconceivable!), that's okay, just share the love with someone who does.
