a weekend in the making

She sat at her kitchen table...the surface before her was piled with notebooks, food magazines, and lists to be made.

She leaned back, pulling the elastic out of the messy ponytail, and let her hair swish to its' full length. Running her fingers through her brown locks, she breathed in the smell of lilacs and summery flowers, and enjoying Pride and Prejudices' sound tracks.
Glancing back at her half-completed "menu" for the weekend ahead,  she looked at the contents...

//  Breakfast  (in car)//
Egg, Sausage McMuffins
Grapes
Cheese Sticks
Water Bottles
//

Okay, 'we'll be making everything homemade' so we'll have to be sure to get it all done on....' she paused there, for a moment,  thinking of the schedule of the weekend, 'on Friday'. Again, she wrote on her piece of paper.

Soon, she finished the list, the menu, the plans. All that was left was cooking for and anticipating the weekend...

my own made up recipe

I don't eat dessert. - that is dessert made with sugar. (but usually,
 that's the only kind people make. :D) So, after looking for recipes using Xylitol and Stevia I actually came up with some good recipes. (snickerdoodles, no-bake cookies etc)

A few days ago, I was going to make some sugar free cookies to take to a gathering just for me. :) Weeellll, to make a long story short: I used the "base" of the snickerdoodle cookie and added honey, (a lot of ) fresh lemon juice, lemon zest and a bit of almonds. "A lemon, honey, tiny-bit-of-almond cookie." -and they turned out rather nicely!!!'


I used basically the same "added ingredients" for the crm. Cheese frosting. So, with a bit of honey, and a splash of lemon I had myself a complete cookie. (exciting, huh?)


It tasted pretty good, so that's all that matters , me guesses. :)

That rambling was supposed to uh, tell you about the cookie I made. :D
