RaVae Erickson I am addicted to cookies. Yes, I LOVE cookies! I love all kinds of cookies, and have only had a few cookies in my entire life that I did not like, besides every hard cookie in existence. I HATE hard cookies, they are such a let down! So, I bring you my single most FAVORITE cookie on the planet. Chocolate Chip Cookies….New York Times Best Seller Cookies…..one and the same!
Here is the link to the blog I found them on: Cookies.
I half the recipe. There is WAY too much dough for me to make into cookies if I don’t (think 3 hours straight of cookie baking to complete the batch with the original recipe). Also, I add normal semi-sweet chocolate chips. The bittersweet chocolate or the baking chocolate is just not sweet enough for me! I don’t like to have a bitter aftertaste in my mouth after consuming a super-amazing cookie!
Now, go make cookies!

RaVae Erickson God, what are you preparing me for? What are you teaching me now? Please open my eyes and let me see! I want to know where this journey is taking me. I want to know the syllabus so I know where I am going. I feel so lost. So alone.
This leadership piece you are showing me now feels so foreign. I don’t think I am a leader, but I have been told my whole life that I am one…just not the loud, bossy type of leader…. I guess that’s a good thing, but what kind of leader am I then? There are so many issues with me as a leader….
I need to be better about communicating my heart, expressing the reason why I am doing something, or want someone else to do something. I need to be better at seeing my weaknesses so I can work on them.
I have no one to lead right now except Brooke, but I know she is the most important person I can lead. Thank you for her. She is amazing! She has such a sweet, quiet, peaceful spirit. Thank you, God. She is perfect.

RaVae Erickson I admit it, I am a perpetual virtual stalker! Google keeps track of it for me, and its really rather sad…according to Google my habits are as follows
1. I’m a Lazy Mom. This has GOT to be the BEST blog in the WORLD! She is funny (ok, I only think she is funny sometimes, other times it way too cheesy to be funny), she has GREAT tips posted for raising kids and running a household and keeping it clean, and she has AWESOME super-EASY recipes! Seriously, what more could you ask for in a Blog?
2. The Pioneer Woman. She is funny, and she has great regular posters who are not herself, so you get more than one perspective in one place! Plus she also owns (or whatever) the Tasty Kitchen website where I have discovered quite a few awesome recipes!
3. AOL News….because everyone needs to know the news! Current Events People!
4. The Complete Guide to Imperfect Homemaking. I’m not sure how I stumbled upon this blog initially, but I LOVE it! Oh, I remember now, I found her blog through a pin on Pinterest! This one actually! I fell in love with the simplicity of it and have checked it at least 5 times a week since! Oh, and she loves FALL as much as I do!
5. The Year of Less. This one Google skips over, because I don’t actually type in the web address, I just click on the link from the Blog listed in number 4! They are the same woman/family in Canada and I love their hearts for LESS stuff and MORE LOVE! This one was obviously found through her other blog.
6. And then there is this MYSTERY blog! Hehehe!
7. Jenny Simmons-Cupcakes! This blog rocks my socks off! She is such an amazing person, and i had the privilege of sharing coffee with her two years ago! She has a new album dropping in Feb and the first single is out now! A-Maze-ing! LOVE it!
8. Slave Free Earth. If you go to any of these websites or blogs, PLEASE chose this one! Please let the numbers permeate your heart and challenge you to DO something rather than paralyzing you into NON-action by the vastly HUGE challenge this is!
9. My Bank….I have to check those balances ya know!
Ok, I guess I’m not the stalker I thought I was…oh HAPPY DAY!
Oh, and sorry for being gone for so long! I hope to be back much more often now!

RaVae Erickson So, um, I LOVE S’mores! Its true! Anything S’mores and I’m sold!
A Shake from Randy’s? Yep!
A Dessert cake from Joe’s Crab Shack? You Betchya!
A REAL S’more made over the stove inside my house in the dead of winter? Yes, I’ve done that too!
And I’ve tried all different kinds of s’mores as well, I’ve had the S’more made with Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and Snickers and Dark Chocolate, but my ultimate favorite is the original Hershey Chocolate and Graham Cracker S’more…SO, When I saw this idea for an EASIER S’more I decided I need to try it! Now I just need a campfire….

RaVae Erickson Father God,
Please be with our dear friends right now. You know their situation. You know their needs. Be with all three of them. Calm their fears and replace it with peace. Use this situation to grow them as a family, to grow them spiritually, to draw them closer to You than they have ever been. Don’t let any one of them close off emotionally during or after this time. Rather, use this time to foster completely open communication between the three of them in a way that has never existed before.
Bless them through this.
Bring people in their new community around them right now to encourage them and comfort them.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Please speed up the process and let everything work together perfectly right now.
