\nIt has been a busy week around here as Vacation Bible School was underway at our church. I served on the photography team. On Wednesday, I baked a thank you gift of cookies for each member of our team. Then, on Thursday, I baked another batch for our facilities team. These are the ones who make sure water stations are filled, clean up each afternoon, and made sure that we never ran out of toilet paper! They are busy enough with all of us around but with the addition of 2,000 kids on campus they are the unsung heroes of VBS. Recipe below:<\/p>\n

The recipe for these cookies was originally based on one that went around claiming to be Mrs. Field’s famous recipe. Over the years I have tweaked it and made it easier for me and hopefully a little healthier – does using whole wheat flour in cookies automatically make them healthy?<\/p>\n
