A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow.

Holiday Traditions: Cookies

I’m not Martha Stewart, but I do try to make the holidays special for those I love.  I bake cookies, lots of them. I usually bake about twenty dozen cookies and mail them to family and friends all over the country.   At least that is what I did before the baby.
Last year I never managed to bake cookies. This year I baked some cookies and intended to mail them to family and friends.  However, those intentions were not realized. 
Time got away from me.  I never made it to the post office in time to share my cookies with anyone outside of Pittsburgh. Oh well, that left more cookies for us here!
I shared the cookies with my colleagues and those who attended my parents' Christmas Eve party.  They seemed to really like them. I think that my cookie baking project can still be considered a success.
What do you think???
