Pi(e) Day 3.14


To celebrate Pi day, I have done a round up of some of my fave pies!

Pies do not have to be sweet, I love a great savory pie as well.
What is your favorite type of pie?

Hershey's Classic Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies

I am a recipe hoarder.
I will try almost anything, but that means saving each and every one I see.

I had made something that included chocolate chips, and this Hershey recipe was on the back of the bag. It's basic chocolate chip cookies...but it's a recipe I didn't have for my blog.

Mission accepted!
(and one more off the top of the recipe mountain!)

1 Cup Butter (softened)
¾ Cup Sugar
¾ Cup Light brown sugar
1 Tsp Vanilla
2 Eggs
2 ¼ Cup All purpose flour
1 Tsp Baking soda
½ Tsp Salt
2 Cups (11.5 oz package) milk chocolate chips


Directions:
1. Heat oven to 375
2. Beat butter, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until creamy
3. Add eggs and beat well
4. In another bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and salt
5. Slowly add dry mixture to butter mixture
6. Stir in chocolate chips

Bread Machine Babka

My daughter finally cleaned her room!
OMG

It's not perfect, but she can find her clothing and she won't die in an avalanche if there is an emergency.

In the process of cleaning, she found (unearthed?) a mound of giftcards.
Oh so much money in gift cards.

We spent a rare day off shopping!
The girl child, my aunt, and myself were shopping fools!
Hubby's jaw dropped when he saw them all come in.
At least she's a bargain shopper, whew!

It was so nice to spend the day with her.
Our schedules are so varied,I am lucky if I see her for more than 20 minutes a day.
(not exaggerating)
I miss my little friend, and love so much to spend time with her.

These moments don't happen near enough!

⅔ Cup Milk
2 Eggs (beaten)
½ Cup Sugar
¼ Tsp Salt
1 Tbsp Orange zest
¼ Cup Mashed potato
