Two more days~!

I don't have to work today though they called me in and I said no so I'm really feeling the excitement now. Debbie was even nice enough to switch shifts with me on Tuesday so now I'll just have to work 5-10 instead of 4-12.

I also just finished making cookies! [info]earthstar_chan said she might make chocolate cookies, so I skipped over any chocolate recipes while looking for something so that we could have a variety of things. ^^ And I went with gingersnaps! It's the second time I've tried making them, and this recipe turned out much better than the last one, so I'm quite happy. I'd definitely make these again, though maybe do a couple things differently. First, I think it could use more ginger. XD Second, I replaced a little of the molasses with corn syrup since every time I've used it in the past, I always ended up with way too strong of a molasses flavour. But after tasting the cookies, I think using the whole 1/4 cup would be fine. So I've got at least a dozen of them packed into a container, which will leave several at home for the family to munch on, too.

I'm planning on starting to pack today so I can make sure I have everything ready. I should definitely bring a warm jacket since it's been sort of cold the past couple of days.

Oh, and I bought some English muffins on Friday, which I must remember to take out of the freezer tomorrow so we can have them for lunch on Wednesday. Maybe I could make some fruit smoothies or something, too.

I can't wait until Wednesday! I almost can't believe how close it is. ^__^
