Cookies make me happy. When I make time to bake it is a good thing for me because it helps me relieve stress. Unfortunately it also makes me feel guilty for eating so much of what I bake. So I have found that the best trick to enjoying the baking of cookies is to remove them from the cookie sheets as soon a possible and place them on a plate so that no one (including myself) can count the missing spots on the cookie sheet. It is also the reason I think that cookie jars were invented so that really there is no way of knowing "exactly" how many cookies have been eaten - just level the pile off is my motto.
Sewing also makes me happy. I was shown a little something called "the pillow case dress" the other day at a work meeting and have since been a little obsessed with it. I found some awesome directions online of how to make them. Maelee and I even went and bought some ribbon today so we could make lots of new dresses for her with all the extra material I have laying around. Here are the awesome websites with very detailed directions that I found.

I am so like you now as far as the cookie thing goes! Baking is my new favorite hobby! Not sewing though--sorry, I got no talent there!
Thanks for sharing those websites! I also love to sew, I am totally making those! I never heard of them before!
Those dresses are so cute! I want to learn how to sew just so I can make those for my little girl someday.
Hey Thanks Kamarah! I have been wanting to find the pattern, but haven't done the research. SO THANK YOU!!! Can't wait to see Maelee and her cute dresses!
