Friday Foodie: A Hit with Hubby


It's a rather chilly morning here in East Tennessee... frost was on the roof and the sun was very slow in coming up this morning. Today will be a busy one for me- it's errand day and after several stops, I'll be heading home with the back of my little 4Runner overflowing with feed for the animals and groceries for us.






Last year I posted a recipe for molasses cookies- Hubby enjoyed them so much he gobbled them up as fast as I could bake them. He put in a request for them again the other day, but after turning the house upside down looking for the recipe I still couldn't find it.... then it hit me- crazy girl, look on your blog!  Once I get the rest of the ingredients today I'll be making a batch (or five) for the weekend.

If you missed this post and want to go back for the recipe (it's worth it to see the glorious color photos of the mess I made) then click *here*.

Happy Friday, everybody!

  1. Those look DELICIOUS Paula!!! Blogs sure do come in handy, I've done that too with looking up recipes, much quicker than trying to remember which cookbook it's in;) Enjoy the day!!!

  2. Hey Paula,
    We were hot here all week but the cold air should be here today plus a strong wind, the weather folks say.

    Wish we would get a rain with it. It sure is dry.

    The molasses cookies look delicious. I will have to try those.
    Have a great weekend.

  5. Can't wait to try these! Molasses cookies are some of my favorite. When I feel like I can splurge, I'll get one from Starbuck's to go with my tea. Homemade will be soooo much better!

    I'm going to write that recipe down, and give those cookies a try.
    They look delicious, and I can think of several friends who would love if I make some and share with them.
    Hope you have a great weekend!

  14. Mmmmm, those cookies look so good... Ya know, my hubby likes molasses so much, he will drink it right from the jar.

    It's really frosty here also, our days have been in the forties and heavy frosts nightly.

    Winter is a knockin...

  17. You're so funny! I've done the very same thing, looked a long time for a recipe I've posted then whacked myself on the forehead, duh!

    Feed and groceries, groceries and feed, kind of the same thing really, but you mix up some of the the groceries and bake them into yummy cookies~

  19. As a young child surrounded by drawling Oklahomans, for the longest time, I thought it was called mole-asses. That was back in the time when the word 'butt' was considered profane, so you can imagine my surprise at hearing someone speak of a mole's *ss. ;-Þ

  23. Paula,
    Those cookies look so delicious. Sounds like a busy day buying feed for the animals and grocery shopping. I sure hope you have a great weekend. It's getting cool here of the mornings, too. We've had some frost, but not a lot. The leaves sure are pretty now in the Blue Ridge Mountains of WNC.
