Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal & Coconut Cookies

We made a batch of these for a friend of ours recently and they were so good we have already made a couple of batches for dinner parties and meetings. The best cookie ever.

Dead Christmas Basket

I was walking down the street and noticed this sitting on someones porch. it didn't quite turn out as vibrant as I wanted because there was not enough contrast between the colors of the cones and boughs and the brick wall in the background. Live and learn.

Shadow Peace Sign

The shadow of this bare tree on the hard crusted snow made for a creepy looking peace sign late at night.

Cookie Tin Ballerina

This little girl in a tutu and stockings, was playing with an empty cookie tin and when she stepped up onto it ( with the help of her mother) it really reminded me of the ballerina music boxes that little girls might own. I was so happy the settings were ready to deal with the harsh light from the sliding door they were standing in front of.
