Day 66

I am grateful for chocolate chip cookies.

I like them not to eat myself, but to make and give away. They were a staple when the kids had friends over, or I'd give them as gifts. I love the joy it gives me when the recipients are excited and grateful. Ryan's friends, Justin and Bekie, always give the best reactions.

If you ask ten bakers for a sample of their best chocolate chip cookie, you'll probably get ten fairly different cookies. I didn't come across the perfect recipe, so I started with a base I liked and kept tweaking it from there until I came up with one that seemed to make the most people happy.

It's been a joy.

Thank You, Lord, for this sweet treat.
