Mmmm, treats!

Southeast winds make our home just a bit colder, so we baked human treats today for Buster's birthday, not paw print cookies, but staff will know whose house they came from. The recipe is near 100 years old called White Cookies, a tribute to a long gone friend, we added the decoration.
Our storm door catches as it did today and snapped off the "button" that holds the door shut. For a quick fix, we tied one end of a short rope to a handle we attached to the door last Fall and tied the other end to our door knob inside. It'll work until the wind shifts tomorrow when the regular door handle can be replaced. An unexpected item, but easy to fix. We've been working on sales tax and gathering tax items together. Writing everything out on ledger paper takes some time, but it's good to see where we've been the past year, how many bags sold, how many miles driven and how many times I have to sharpen my pencil.

The dogs are close by, as always, sleeping sound on warm blankets. Thanks friends for birthday greetings to Buster. Take care.
