A storm followed by a beautiful rainbow!

Pay no attention to the spider web on the outside of my window.....or the screen that I took the picture through...lol!  I was in my pj's already so there was no going outside...........
Here is a picture of the cookies I made last night.  They are Jan Hagen cookies and I have had the recipe for 40 or 50 years.  I have no idea who Jan Hagen is but her cookies are mighty good!
 I will share the recipe with you as I only share the good ones!

Jan Hagen Cookies

1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1 egg white
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Cream butter and sugar together.  Add egg yolk. Sift flour and cinnamon together then gradually add to the mixture.  Spread dough on a cookie sheet (or a pizza pan like I did).  Brush on a film of egg white.  Sprinkle on nuts.  Bake at 300 F for 30 minutes.  Cut into squares while hot and let cool. 

Today I walked early and then it rained again for a bit.  I worked inside as it was so wet out even after the rain stopped.  I vacuumed my kitchen and family room and washed the kitchen floor.  I cleaned my tub and Grace's litter box.  I finished another lattice square.........
 and then worked on Jane's Joy until I lost my needle!  I've also lost my needle minder.....there is no hope for me!
 Now I'm going to go do my 15 minute cleanup and that will probably do it for me for today for chores.  I need to order more floss too.
Happy Trails!!!

I am Williams vivian by name, i want to share a blog and forums on how to get real blank ATM card,thank to cyber hacking company who helped me with an already hacked ATM CARD and i was so poor without funds that i got frustrated. One morning as i was browsing on the internet, i saw different comments of people testifying of how cyber hacking company helped him from being poor to a rich man through this already hacked ATM CARD. I was skeptical if this was true, i decided to contact him to know if he is real he proved to me beyond all doubts that its was really for real so i urgently receive my blank ATM card.

  2. What a pretty rainbow. How many squares do you have completed now? Those cookies sound very easy to make. Might need to give them a try soon. Loosing the needle is sad but using the needle minder is even sadder. Hope you find both soon.

    1. I have 17 squares so far. I am going to make arm chair covers for the arms and the back and seat of my 2 chairs in the family room. It will take 4 for each arm so I have enough now for the 4 arms but need lots more for the back and seats of the chairs. I'm sure the needle minder is in on of my Stitch Mania bags. I just need to take the time to look for it.

  3. That is such a pretty rainblow. I wouldn't have noticed the web or the screen until you pointed them out. I was fixated on the rainblow. Those cookies sound yummy. I have everything except nuts here in the trailer. I would love to make some but maybe next week after I make a trip home to get nuts!
    I hope you find your needle and needle minder soon. Sometimes I feel as if I'm losing my mind when I can't find things that should be in a certain place.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    1. You could make them without the nuts but they wouldn't be as good. I have been cleaning and organizing and whenever I do that I lose things!

  4. Those cookies look and sound delicious and they look pretty easy to make. I keep losing crochet hooks! Eventually they turn up but it's so annoying when they are MIA!

    1. My check list for keeping recipes are they must be easy, delicious, inexpensive (as in not a lot of exotic ingredients) and quick. That is the reason I am de-cluttering and organizing but the process is painful as I can't find anything when I do that!

  11. LOVE SPELL TESTIMONY

    Thank you so much DOCTOR ODUNGA for making my ex boyfriend come back to me. I am writing this wonderful testimony in respect of this man. He made all my wishes come true. My boyfriend and I dated for more than 3 years and although we had had so many quarrels we never thought of a break up. One day, he called me over the phone telling me how he is tired of the relationship and cannot see anywhere that we are heading to. Months passed and my boyfriend did not contact me anymore and I did not hear from him anymore and his cell phone was disconnected. I knew I needed to seek help because of the love I have for him. I contacted this great spell caster because i have never contacted anyone before and i tell you that after a week of contact, my ex boyfriend called me and asked to see me and the next morning, he wore a ring on my finger. I am very happy because I am soon going to be a married girl with the help of this great spell caster. I promised to manifest your works to everyone and please contact this man to help you at
