Autumn Activities

On the weekend, I baked some chocolate chip cookies using a twist on my favourite recipe, and have nearly perfected the ultimate chocolate chip cookie! They have been great at school this week.

On Sunday, I made up some cards using new supplies I bought at the Perth Craft and Quilt Show last week.

The weather is starting to cool down and I was in need of some new slippers. Mum and I found these cute Billabong slippers lined in gorgeous Japanese style fabric. They will be perfect for winter.

I thought you made the slippers too. I wouldn't put it past you, only yours would be even cuter.

Now of course our family values are the same because we are almost twins only you are extremely talented.

We had a "happy" cookie accident at our house this weekend. One of my girls used almond extract instead of vanilla in a batch of chocolate chip cookies. I gotta say it was tasty.

Take care,
Cassie

Oh--love those slippers and cute cards.

Do you have a punch for those heart shapes? I can't seem to find one big enough that's not ridiculously exxy.
