I was starting to get my appetite back this afternoon, so I went to the kitchen for a snack. I thought some Triscuits and Camembert Cheese sounded yummy. The only thing was I wanted the Camembert a little melty, so I thought I would pop the cheese and crackers in the microwave for about 15 seconds. Not a good idea! My melty snack turned into a stinky snack all too quickly. Lesson learned never ever put Camembert Cheese in the microwave unless you want to clean a stinky microwave. Oh well, they can’t all be kitchen successes 😉

White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies
Last week I made a batch of White Chocolate Apricot Oatmeal Cookies from my Hershey’s cookbook, and they were so delicious. I decided to split the batter after I added the White Chocolate Chips, but before I added in the dried fruit. I ended up making one batch of White Chocolate Apricot, and one batch of White Chocolate Cranberry. For each batch I added in 1/4 cup of chopped dried fruit. I also use a melon baller as my cookie scoop, that way I get bite sized cookies, and it makes a few more too.
The White Chocolate Cranberry were my favorite, but I think this recipe would work with just about any dried fruit and chip combination. I thought about making a Dark Chocolate Cherry Oatmeal cookie, or how about a White Chocolate Blueberry Cookie? Now I’m getting hungry 🙂
How is your Christmas baking going? Happy Baking 😉
Todays Cleaning Might Have to Wait
I was doing so good yesterday, I even got a little ahead on the Christmas cleaning. This morning, I woke up with a migraine at 2:00 a.m., and it is still with me. I’ve taken some medicine with a large cup of coffee. Thade got chocolate milk with breakfast, to keep him a little quieter. Dylan is happily snacking on Sweet Potato Puffs, so at the moment he is slightly quiet, which really helps. How I wish I could crawl back into bed and start all over again, minus the migraine.
Thanks Hubby
Guess what my hubby brought home today? Two huge 2008 Calendars, I love them, and him too 🙂 He got me one large desk-top calendar, and one to go on the wall. I’m so excited, because now I can start menu planning, and party planning for next year.
