Some updates:
For my last swing dance at home I made Cinnamon Sprials, Oatmeal Chippers, and a Coconut Cookie (recipe coming soon!).
And then when I went home to visit darling (read about it here!) and made him Cupcakes, Cinnamon Spirals and Snickerdoodles.
In the interm the only thing I'd made was some yummy banana bread. I found the recipe here. It was sort of necessary because we had over-ripe bananas that needed to be used or disposed of.

Darling is going to be coming in one month and I'm hoping to make him these Moosehunter Cookies I stumbled upon.
In other words- I haven't been baking. It's been tough trying to cook myself dinners nonetheless desserts.
A sample of my meals:
Nachos
Oatmeal

Stir Fry
Burritos
Now that I've been here a while and have gotten the hang of cooking meals, hopefully I'll be able to start cookie baking once again!
