Happy Valentine's Day, dearhearts

Somehow, we'll get through this together. Oh, I'm worried. But fighting back best I can in my tiny way.

I made some chocolate chip cookies for Valentine’s Day and my husband and I think this is the best recipe I ever used.

Soft cookies with very melty chocolate chips instead of hard chocolate. Makes your hands messy to eat but really yummy.

They say you can keep anxiety at bay by doing creative stuff. Maybe depression, too. Maybe we can have a small break from the bad feelings if we do something fun like baking cookies.

I wish I could start a thread here that asks, what fun thing will you do today? Wonder if people would think it was a dumb idea.

But we could promise each other to do one creative and fun thing every day.
