Chocolate Chip Cookies made by TINK!!

Happy Birthday Holly! Holly and I, at the top of Mt. Si, earlier this Summer! 

 August 1st is the start of Summer here in Seattle! It is also, my beautiful daughter, Tink's birthday!! This morning we have a hike planned with family and friends. Tonight, I have planned a very special party for her. Jason Wilson of Crush is coming to our home, to prepare an amazing dinner for 10 of Holly's family and friends. The menu is ....ahhh well over the top! And of course it will be on the blog! Jason and Nicole have asked to put the pictures on their Facebook page as well! Happy Birthday my dear daughter, you are amazing! I am so proud of you, as is Wee Bear!
 Holly recently spent a day baking and brought her treats to a family barbeque. One of the treats she made was "Chocolate Chip Cookies". Yeah, I know, we all have a family favorite recipe for Chocolate chip cookies. Well, try this recipe.... after you wrap your lips around your first bite, you will be dying another!!  These are over the top! I asked if she would stop by after work and allow me to photograph her making these magical morsels. Much to our delight, she did! Just make these, that's all I can say!
