Cookies make the world go round :O)

     I must say I enjoy nothing more in life then a great cookie.  As far back as I can remember my mother and I always made cookies together.  Cookies of every kind from peanut butter, my all time favorite, to chocolate chip.  It is a tradition I love to carry on with my children. From adding the ingredients to licking the beaters. Yep, I let my kids lick the beaters ;op, there is no greater joy as a child.  So I thought I would share one of my favorite cookies with everyone.  It is out of a 1979 magazine and is easy and wonderful.


BUTTER COOKIES!

1 Egg
2 1/2 cups flour
2 sticks of butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
coloring if you choose


   This is by far the easiest cookie I have ever made. It is simple. Just dump everything in a bowl and mix well!  I use a cookie press to make different shapes but you could simply drop the mixture on a pan as well. Bake at 350 for roughly 8 minutes. Cooking times will vary depending on the size and shape of your cookie.  These cookies taste best the next day with a nice cold glass of milk. :O) ENJOY!

Homemade Fly Traps

We all love summer but as the weather gets warmer the flies get worse and worse. We have a bush out front of our house that I swear just attracts every fly in town! I wanted to get rid of them but I didn't want to kill all the wonderful butterflies it also attracts. So I went about finding a new way to kill them all. I had some empty Tazo tea bottles I simply poked a pen sized whole in the top, added 1/2 cup of water, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of dish soap, and 1 tablespoon of syrup.Now I do find that these work better if you place them in the sun :O) If you want to use a bigger container simply multiply the ingredients. Make sure your hole is only about the size of a pen cap! Then they can't seem to get back out.lol
