I love lazy days. I just finished making lime-orange juice from fresh limes that grow in this region like dandelions. The oranges break the tartness, making it a refreshing tangy drink.
My mom made her healthy apple breakfast cookies this morning. Miss Janis sampled one and renamed them “Everything but the Kitchen Sink Cookies.” A baker would know. They are filled with nuts, whole-grain oats, dried apples, cranberries, walnuts. I think my mom wants to secretly stay here and join the bakery staff. She has a knack for making new creations and would fit perfectly into Miss Janis’s two oven shop with an oven for each.
Sometimes our best therapy is found in the simplest activity. I encourage you today to do something simple and see how good it is.
If you have access to Maraschino cherries try making that lime orange aid and add 3 cherries with the juice...soooo good!!

Enjoy the warm, lazy days!! Sounds like the perfect "retreat" during this long winter. The cookies sound scrumptious!! Would you mind sharing the recipe?
