As schools started yesterday, my schedule already being full to the top. I can’t feel the time when it quickly passing by between the kids, school, and home. I guess this is everybodies problem these days, everyone seems in a hurry to catch up with his own piled stuffs to do.

The great advantage about cookies is that most of them can be made in advance, so they always be ready for any upcoming occasion whenever you’re busy which leaves you time to do other stuffs or if you just settle down to end your working day with sweet treat and an afternoon cup of coffee or a relaxing cup of tea.
