HOMEMADE COOKIES | RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS
06/14/2024
Random act of kindness are simple. I need to do it more. I challenge us all to make a batch of homemade cookies and give them to someone to brighten their day. I always get rave reviews when I make homemade chocolate chip cookies. I’ve shared my secret before. I use a copycat recipe of the famous Levain Bakery chocolate chip cookies with a few small tweaks I have perfected over the years. I shared all the info. HERE. Another favorite cookie recipe I bake often is a family hand-me-down. The flat, crispy, melt in your mouth, buttery sugar cookies remind me of weekends at the lake with the whole family. I’m sharing the recipe so you can make your own family memories. I have also linked below the supplies I use when baking cookies. Now go bake some cookies and make someone’s day.

Last year we remodeled the back patio and deck. We poured plenty of concrete footers to make the deck extra strong to hold a pool. We can’t have an actual pool because our septic lateral lines run right through the backyard. A stock tank pool on the deck is our solution. We bought a 10-foot stock tank from our local farm and home store. To start we filled it with a little water to see if there were any leaks. We did find a few so we caulked over the sealed lines with marine grade caulking on both the inside and underside to prevent any leaks. Then we followed these directions to purchase supplies and turn our stock tank into a pool. And this is the back deck this year ready for summer. I originally thought I wanted to coat the inside of the pool to hide the caulked...
