In my kitchen today.....

I feel like I am in house 'fluffing' mode....

preparing for the holiday decorations that will

soon come out {ugh!}.....

Call me a grinch but I will admit that decorating for

Christmas is not my favorite thing.....all the rearranging

then knowing that in 30 short days it will have to all

be undone....

I added this bulletin board to my kitchen counter ..... 

I like having a place in my kitchen for inspiration

and my open kitchen has no wall space.

The bulletin board also hides the ugly granite tile backsplash

that is just waiting to be replaced by some shiny white 

subway tiles.....but I digress......

Notice the jar of cookies in front of my new inspirational bulletin board?

They are my girls' favorite oatmeal cookies.....

Lucky you, I got my act together enough to share the recipe!
