Happy Saturday!

It has been a great weekend so far!

good morning Bailey!
"Good morning!" says Bailey.

I knit up a quick pair of Toasty yesterday for mom! I know, its May, but who can resist 100% cashmere, right? The Plucky Knitter Aran Cashmere, 1 skein in Brickhouse (love!).

Puddles, do you like cashmere?

I think Puddles likes cashmere too.

Piddleloop and a test knit

I knit on the test knit sock I'm doing for Sam. I absolutely love the pattern and the yarn (STR Lover's Leap....that pink just sings!). And of course, my little splurge a week or two ago from Piddleloop (beware: there is actually stuff in the shop!!).

I also did a little baking. You see, Snowboarder, Rowan, and I have become addicted to these cookies. Only 2 points on Weight Watchers, but they taste like real cookies (you know, not those fake ones). But they aren't cheap. And I figured there had to be a healthy version of this cookie somewhere online.

got milk?
Look at these healthy ingredients!

Delish!

Healthy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

They're delish! And healthy! And, Snowboarder took an entire bag home because he liked them so much! I even caught him sneaking one before we went to dinner tonight at one of our favorite restaurants.

Hope you all are having a great weekend!! And Happy Mother's day to all the moms, grandmas, aunties, and sisters!

It was the Chicken Casserole recipe and it was delicious. Leftovers for tomorrow too!
