Life is about evolving, progressing, thriving, overcoming, in short, LIVING! My journey started out as a preparedness journal with freeze dried foods. And while I still use them regularly, store them and promote them, this page is going through some evolving of its own. So bit by bit you will be seeing more about me personally. About who I am by accident and who I am on purpose. Because the bigger story is not just surviving life, it is living a THRIVING life! Thrive with me, Dorie!

Grandkids and Callydoodles
2 of my 5 grandaughters were visiting with me several weeks ago, and as per my usual 'Dodo' activities, we decided to make cookies!
The older of the 2 grandaughters, who considers herself most wise and authoritarian is Jaycee.
The younger middle of the pack child, Cally, who is going through the 7 year old geekypest stage and is AKA as 'little Dodo' wanted chocolate chip cookies (my personal choice ;)
But the older one insisted that they were too sweet. She chose Snickerdoodles (to me the sweetest cookie going but nobody asked me ;) This of course outweighed Cally's choice. Enter sad face, she's used to coming in second or third place :(
Enter happy face! Cally said 'Let's put chocolate chips in some snickerdoodles.' What a great idea, Cally
YAY! How to make 2 girls happy with one recipe. I'm all over it. Until....Enter my BIG sad face...
I look in my cupboard and have no shortening, no butter, very little flour and no eggs! Chocolate chips I have plenty. So this is what any THRIVE grandma would do...
I get out Butter powder, Rice flour, Egg powder and Shortening powder, all in my THRIVE homestore.
I mix them Snickerdoodles up quick!
(just tilt your head to the right to copy)
Roll them in cinnamon sugar...
Dot them with chocolate chips...
And Voila' you have CALLYDOODLES!! And 2 happy grandaughters!
You can fill your own Homestore with these recipe lifesavors right here.
Now just add Milk! Or THRIVE instant milk if you have run out!!
