It's a sad day for America when...

We can no longer rely on ourselves to provide the basic necessities of life.
We look to our government for one handout after another.
We feel entitled to our "own kitchen" without working for it.
We look outward, not inward, for change and hope.

p.s. Whats with the creepy lady in the white blazer whispering "I love you, Barack"?

The headline says it all

As seen yesterday on KSL:

"USA Today: Ogden one of the cities to live, work and play"

Bruce's response:

"Yes! Yes! Yes!! I'm vindicated!! I knew it all along! YES!!"

Lemons for Lovers

Am I obsessed with citrus fruits of late? I think yes.

For good reasons! I found this awesome recipe for "Lemon Lover's Cookies" and baked them for two parties this past weekend. They were a hit and so tasty, you should make them too!

Lemon Lover's melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness:

3/4 c. butter
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tsp lemon juice
1 1/4 c. flour
1/2 c. cornstarch
1 tsp grated lemon peel

**cream butter and sugar, beat in lemon juice. combine flour, cornstarch and lemon peel. gradually add to mixture. mix well and roll into a long roll. wrap with parchment paper and freeze. cut dough in 1/4 inch cookies and bake @ 350 for 8-10 mins. or if you have a turbo oven like ours, it's more like 5 minutes!

**I made some cream cheese frosting and added some extra lemon juice and zest. No one complained.
