I love my husband. First of all, he sometimes bakes cookies for us. Secondly, he has brilliant ideas. Like pouring Heath chips into the cookie dough.
Toffee chips make a classic even better.

I love my husband. First of all, he sometimes bakes cookies for us. Secondly, he has brilliant ideas. Like pouring Heath chips into the cookie dough.
Toffee chips make a classic even better.
Unfortunately, you only get to see a photo of the ingredients this time. I completely forgot to take pictures of the cookies!
Let me see if I can paint a word picture for you. They were round, lightly browned, chock full of oats and studded with plenty of chocolate chips, not too flat or too fluffy, the perfect amount of sweet.
I adapted the recipe from the back of the Great Value quick oats box, swapping out shortening for butter and using more chocolate chips than the original called for.
For reasons I cannot explain, I had never made or eaten blueberry cobbler. I don’t know why I waited so long to partake of this delicious dessert.
This is adapted from my recipe for Cherry Cobbler, which I’ve also made with blackberries and mixed berries. I cut the sugar a bit for the blueberry, since they are naturally more sweet than cherries and other berries used in cobblers.
Do you ever just get a hankering for something? I did the other day. I wanted blueberry muffins but I really felt the blueberries needed to be paired with a hint of orange.
Sounds sunny, doesn’t it? The muffins are perfect for breakfast, but we ate them for a snack. (Don’t tell anyone, but I prefer muffins to cupcakes. This tidbit of info could destroy my serious sweet tooth reputation.)
Dick stole the hoe cake
Ran through the meadow with it
Hid it in a brush pile
And swore he never meddled with it

Hoe cakes are just another way to fix your cornbread, a good variation on a mealtime staple. When I was growing up, we ate them just like cornbread but you can also have them with syrup if you like.
