Birthday treat for Jenni

I have to bring cookies to a church choir lunch today, and since it is Jenni's birthday I made one of her favorite recipes: Snickerdoodles.

It's been years since I made these. The cinnamon smell in the kitchen this morning is making my mouth water.

I'm in Chicago O'Hare airport waiting for a return flight to Tucson. I said goodbye to Aidan & Isaac this afternoon in Grand Rapids. This past week with them was delightful, if somewhat tiring due to their high energy. I don't know how Christi keeps up with them. She and Chris are doing a great job raising the boys.

It was raining in Grand Rapids all morning. There were thick clouds all across Lake Michigan--until the Illinois shore were the sun came out.

Isaac took a penny horse ride this afternoon. His brother, Aidan, never had the courage.

Back to Blogger

It's been a year since I put anything here. Haven't even thought about sending anything here for a long time. Actually, had forgotten I had a Blogger account.

This morning I read a posting from a colleague and thought, "Mmmm. I should start putting things on my blog page."

I've had many reactions to books, lectures, events, people and so forth that I've let slip. I'd like to share them. So here goes my renewed blogging effort.
