Sandy's Recipe Book - Delicious Cookies




Delicious Cookies

Recipe from: Lori Sutton

Ingredients:
  • 1 egg
  • 3 ½ cups flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup oil
  • 1 cup softened butter
  • 1 cup oatmeal
  • 1 cup Rice Krispies
  • 6 ounces chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Directions:
  • Mix and bake at 350° for 12 minutes.
  • Will look light even when done!

These are, indeed, delicious. I would describe them as a mix between a sugar cookie and a chocolate chip cookie, with some nice texture from the oatmeal and Rice Krispies. I added more chocolate chips than it called for, because that's what I do. 👍

20 Years Ago - NCHS Color Guard Takes Europe

Image
I was recently reminded of our high school trip to Europe, which happened 20 years ago during this time of year--December 26, 2000 through January 3, 2001. It's wild that this event was more than half my life ago! I felt like going down memory lane and writing about the journey, so henceforth commences my first blog post of 2021, commemorating a long-ago adventure during simpler times (pre-9/11, pre-adulthood, pre-any type of responsibility). The whole music department at Normal Community High School went--marching band, color guard, choir, and orchestra--and we all had performances whilst overseas. I was 16 years old and it didn't register to me at the time how big of a deal it was. I totally took the experience for granted, but, with the proper hindsight now, I'm super grateful. It couldn't have been cheap and I don't think my parents had that kind of disposable income readily available. I wish I could go back in time and truly take it all in, appreciate it fully,

An update on the binder situation: I got an email back from Carrie (house mom in Cambridge), who I had left the binder with and who was going to take it to the DRC to see it off from the post. She apologized profusely about it, which made me feel bad because it wasn't her fault at all. She admitted that sometimes people in the DRC are "awkward, especially [insert name of individual who I suspect purposefully did this],"which I believe means that the only person who is awkward is that person. . Anywho... she thinks that I should email John (supervisor at Cambridge) and explain what happened, but I'm kind of over it at this point and realize that not much can be done. I think Carrie is going to try to gather the bits that were missing and perhaps find the actual binder and send it to me. That would be nice, but I'm not getting my hopes up about it. Oh well. I just started reading the book Traveling with Pomegranates last night because I received it in

I want to walk down the aisle to this song. We're having a piano/violin duet and I think this is a good representation of what it will sound like. Really only the first 1:10 is how long I'd be walking. (The video must be pictures of the guy playing violin, so don't watch it. Do something else while listening.) Every time I listen to Canon in D, I get a little choked up, but I just can't picture myself walking to that song. This song is by Switchfoot (a few months ago I posted the link to their version) and is featured in the movie A Walk to Remember . I love that movie and the song has such emotional connotations for me, for one--the movie itself is just happy and sad, and two--my mom and I always loved this song since we heard it the first time. I start crying every time I listen to it. There will be very few people that probably recognize the song if we use it when I walk down the aisle. I'm not sure if this matters to me because I love the song so much and
