before I head to bed...

A busy weekend here, though not so hectic as not to be relaxing. In fact, I found the hours spent in the kitchen today to be quite what I needed. Some cooking (things needed for dinner, dinner for tomorrow to be reheated, cookies), a couple of XMen movies, and a couple of letters written. Conrad took care of laundry behind the scenes.

I've been thinking lately about what I cook. I've been in a rut, and it's time to try some new recipes. The cookies are a small first step. I keep supplies of dried cherries on hand constantly nowadays, and in searching for a simple cookie recipe, I came upon one for oatmeal cookies studded with the cherries and semi-sweet chocolate chunks. I think they turned out tastily.

Not exactly a New Year's resolution - I don't do those, and this IS February (already!). But yes, an ongoing effort to try some new dishes. Not obsessively so, but expect to see some on the blog from time to time.
