Here's alittle about myself.... My name is Sara Klemm. I'm 25 years old and happily married to my amazing husband Nick. We met online in a vermont chat room. We started dating April 27th 06. On our year anniversary of dating (April 27 07) Nick asked me to marry him and of course I said "YES". Then on June 27th 09 we got married.
I decided to write a blog about the recipes I make because I thought it would be cool and maybe trade recipes with other people and see what they think of the recipes I put on here if they try them too.
For Christmas 09' Nick and I made cookies for our loved ones because we didnt have the to get presents since we just had the wedding 6 months before. I came up with the idea we make cookies because one it comes from the heart and two everyone likes cookies right! I'll put the recipes up and pictures too when I make the recipes again. We made three different kinds of cookies.
Tonight I made the first recipe. It didn't come out the way I wanted to but there's always next time!
