I figured out that there are
232 calories per serving, if 24 servings are made. (Please note that the calorie
counts vary depending on the specific brands of ingredients that you choose to
use.)
I really like these crispy
oatmeal cookies. They are a little
different than the other Ree recipe I made earlier. I was truly happy that they
were only 232 calories because that is a total that I can live with today. I
also love the fact that Ree makes these ahead and keeps them frozen for up to 3
months. This is great because that
way you can be ready with homemade cookies in about 12 minutes if you plan
ahead!!!!!
Random Reflections
I
was driving down Rt. 31 on my way home one evening and I passed this beautiful
house at Batavia Ave. (aka Rt. 31) and Elizabeth on the west side of Geneva.
You have probably seen it many times. I love the roof over the covered circular
porch because it is a bronze, soon to be green, color. I would love to tour the inside of this
beauty to see the layout and how it is used. The lot is large for in-town and
it does have an out-building or two, I think. Next time you are heading south
on Rt. 31 near the train station, look to your right and enjoy this beauty.
Helpful Home Hints
Do you have a backup sump pump?
My fabulous brother-in-law, Steve Mendel, suggested that I get on for my
basement because I have so many things downstairs. This has really come in
handy, especially at this time of year because with electrical storms, power
goes out and your sump pump cannot operate. My back-up pump can run many hours and prevent the basement
from flooding. I will always have one because if you do not have one, you will
be dealing with ruined boxes and keepsakes as well as mold. I am deathly allergic to mold and this
is something I will always prevent in my home.
Go
out and get a back-up today and just call Good Call Plumbing and let them do
the work for you.
