I always find it interesting what captures my children.  We just got home from our East Coast Adventure and have rapidly settled back into our regular routines (did we really ever go away?).

When I am home I make cookies about twice a week.  I make a variety of cookies and everyone has their favourite.  So today I made cookies.  The enthusiasm that the cookies inspired was entertaining.  You would think because they are such a regular occurrence that they would just be hohum, but no that is not the case.  Three weeks without homemade cookies has obviously deprived my children of something essential to their happiness.  My daughter was so delighted to see fresh cookies, she did a happy cookie dance.
