July 1: Happy Gingersnap Day

My day started 
by watering the flowers at 7:00am this morning. Next came the coffee. I settled myself down at the table with my laptop on one side and the newspaper on the other. I did a bit of complaining to my hubby about how I couldn't find a picture of gingersnaps that I liked so I could make it part of my cookie post. 


He explained to me 
how they were called "ginger nut cookies" back home in Australia. Before I knew it- The smell of cookies were hovering over my head. I guess my conversation about gingersnap cookies made him want some because in no time there was a pile of cookies sitting on the table. The hubby made 3 batches. I don't think I have to tell you how thrilling it was to sit and work at the table while eating warm and crispy cookies with a fresh pot of coffee. Not to mention.... I got my photo of gingersnaps. I love it when my hubby has the day off.  :)
