Are you on Good Reads? It’s great — like social networking for bookworms. I’ve been doing a lot of reading lately, so every time I finish a book, I can post reviews and see what my friends are reading. Here’s a quick look into what I’ve been filling my brain with as of late:

Not surprisingly, people take their cookies seriously. In the midst of planning our cookie extravaganza, I was delighted with the cookie feedback I received via email, Facebook, Twitter, etc. Deliciousness via social networking? Who knew?
So here’s a quick roundup of recipes. My oven is about to get a work out.
Christmas Wreaths: I know the green...
If you follow me on Twitter, you may have noticed this little gem last week:
I’m making good on my tweet. I won’t bake cookies until December 24th. Maybe even the 25th. In the meantime, I’ve been perusing my favorite magazines and websites for ideas and recipes for my cookie extravaganza. I’ll post the top contenders...

This trip was a trifecta of aweseomeness: The Detroit Red Wings were playing their season opener in Stockholm, which was the main reason for the trip. But I have always ALWAYS wanted to travel to Sweden because it’s the land of...
I’m posting this dress not because it is extremely stylish (which it is) but more so because of its lovely shade of green. Much like the green worn by the Michigan State University Spartans. If you haven’t heard, they’ll be playing in the NCAA Championship game this evening. If I were in Detroit to witness...
Just wanted to say sorry for the blogging hiatus this week. I’ve been sick as a dog and have been busy reading up on the many different exotic diseases I might have on Web MD. Turns out it’s not dengue, so I’ve got that going for me.
