Wow,another long-haired,crocheting gun woman!

~I got to the Family Thrift Center for their 1/2-off Back-to-School sale at 8:50am.The line was longer than in July,but it wasn't raining.I remembered to bring my big,quilted shopping bag!

~Back home,I made Oatmeal Cookies in several different ways:

*in a 5"x7" pan for a birthday "cake" with chocolate chips spelling out "21" & decorated with butterscoth chips

*12-count muffin-size,half chocolate chips,half butterscoth chips
