The Beauty of Ordinary Days | Homemaking & Baking

Описание: It was a rainy day so I decided to make some homemade chocolate chip cookies. We also ran up to the local mercantile to restock on milk. I enjoy the slowness of rainy days. The cookies turned out very good so I wrote the recipe down in my cookbook to make again.
