“
The soft down of your white hair lightly playing about your scalp like a half-blown dandelion.
…I’ve been tempted to blow on your head and make a wish.
”
The History of Love by Nicole Krauss
This sentence immediately made me think of my grandfather! He had the most remarkably soft white hair. I miss him. His flannel shirt. Stocking caps. Smell of Coast soap. Running my fingers through his hair. All of it.
This gal has a busy month ahead of her, between photography jobs, work parties, book club, social committee and the holidays. I am on the go! I need your help…. For our book club this month we are doing a cookie exchange and white elephant gift exchange. Details?
I need to make 6 dozen cookies
*NO chocolate chip are allowed through the door! (booo)
The gift is to be a literary theme/type under $15.00
I want to be creative! I have some ideas, but I am hitting a road-block.
What kinds of ideas do you guys have for yummy cookies and literature-based gifts?
UPDATE: Thank you for your ideas! Keep ‘em coming. :) If you have more ideas/recipes that won’t fit in the answer block, email it to me at tabitha.m.snyder@hotmail.com. Thanks lovlies!
