Hi, it’s me Lily – again!
Are you having a great week? I have! I survived the first week of school. I made a lot of new friends, and I got elected for Student Council. I’m so excited! It starts next Thursday. My classmate, Chase, will also be on student council with me. I don’t even know what to expect but I’ll let you know how it goes next week.
Do you know my mom and I are already working on fall recipes? We made some Halloween treats last week, and I can’t wait to share them with you. Another recipe I’m excited to share is today’s recipe – Chocolate Coconut Oatmeal Cookies. They are so good! It only has a small hint of coconut, but you can add little more if you want. You can even add more chocolate on top if you wanted to. The cookies are so chewy and delicious, I have a feeling you’re going to eat FOUR of them! I really think your kids will like them, so let me know if you give them a try.
Here’s the recipe:
