Today’s recipe was inspired by a fabulous baker named Minnie Mouse. Did you know she has her own bakeshop? She does, and she’s hired some capable help.

Thanks to my repeated attempts at cloning the world famous compost cookie, this weekend has been one long stomachache.

Happy Friday!   I hope everyone has a fun weekend planned. We have tentative plans for Sea World, but I don’t know….it’s HOT.  As for today, we’re staying inside the air conditioned house and having another marathon play date with Fuzz’s friend, A.
