TOP TEN RECIPES | AUGUST
This week I am, “The Not-So-Fresh Cooky” haha!! In fact, I am the “stale” Cooky! Do you ever have weeks like that? Lacking creativity, a little depleted or life is plain ol’ B-U-S-Y? I know you have weeks like that, I am not alone in my claim to having a full life, so I know you will give me grace this week.

Many of you may not know that along with this blog (and being a wife, mom, daughter, friend, volunteer, etc) I am also a small business owner and while I’m slowly weaning myself from aspects of this business; however, I have occasions where I need to dive in. I work mostly with non-profit organizations and I coordinated a fun event on Wednesday that has kept me busy lately.
When I sat down to write my post for the week, I had nothin’. Eventually I chose to give myself permission to skip this week and instead bring you my Top Ten Recipes | August.
Happy Labor Day to all of my US and Canadian friends! May you find time amidst the labor to restore your souls!

This looks far from stale to me Kathleen! I absolutely understand the difficulties in keeping motivated when life is so full. Thanks for being so honest and real!
Thank you Tasia! Appreciate your encouragement. I sat at my computer and wrote the beginning sentence of my ice cream post for over an hour – knew I needed to move on! Lol.
