Lynn's Lines - True Confessions...

Okay I admit it - I ate the cookies...

Over the weekend Tricia wasn't feeling very well, in fact she puked Sunday morning while I was in the other room on the phone...wish I could have been there to hold her hair back ;). Our neighor, who is a nurse, has become Tricia's go-to-nurse for everything - a cut on the finger, wipe out on the scooter, etc. Personally I think she likes the extra attention, especially when I don't seem to give enough during those times...this is going somewhere I promise.

True to form, Tricia calls her personal nurse and gets sympathy and a few instructions (which she followed step-by-step). Later that afternoon the same nurse delivered soup to our home for poor-old-sick-Tricia, which I enjoyed tremendously - it was delicious.

So, Monday rolls around and I'm feeling pretty guilty not reciprocating this fine gesture (this was after I finished off another bowl of soup for lunch). After I got home from work I decided to make cookies for the soup-givers and others, since Tricia thinks I need to lose some weight (I did save a few for us though). I ended up making two plates: 1. for the soup-givers and 2. for our other friends/neighbors who claimed that the last batch I made was awesome. The soup-givers got their plate, but I couldn't get a hold of our other friends.

Here is the confession: since they didn't answer their phone, and since I'd polished off the ones I kept for Tricia and I - I ate the 2nd plate...in fact I just had the last two for my lunch dessert. At least they lasted until Thursday, right? Maybe I should make some more? Man I make good cookies!!

I wouldn't complain if you made me some cookies. Just so you know.

Be careful what you wish for.

I've so done that before! I'm just impressed that you made the cookies! My husband is not much of a cook (good thing I love cooking, we're a great match!) and I don't think he knows how to make cookies. Way to go!

I hope Zandra reads this. And now you have to make cookies for four more people!

This is another perfect example of how thoughtful Lynn is and how not thoughtful I am. He made cookies to thank our neighbor for taking care of me! I didn't do anything to say thanks! I'm so rotten!
