Happy October, everyone!
Isn't it amazing how fast time flies!
It seems like just yesterday that it was August, and school was just starting.
In light of the aforementioned truth about the passing of time, I am endeavoring to write a series of posts about the "everyday holidays". Each day that are alive is a gift from God! We have a choice about how we look at life. Why not choose to make each day special, and live to the fullest for the glory of God EVERY MOMENT!?!
Isn't fall the most lovely time of year? This is when the temperature gets a little chilly, and sweaters and hoodies are most welcome. The leaves on the trees are just starting to change colors. The air is crisp. You go outside and leaves are cruching under your feet, leaving a earthy musty scent in the air. You go inside and are immediately hit with the warmth of the house. Then one of the most wonderful smells hits your nose! Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookies!!!!
To celebrate today, it is Homemade Cookie Day!
Use this as an excuse to do some baking. Find your favorite (or a new) cookie receipe...and CELEBRATE!
