 Beautiful Easter Cookies
It is almost Easter and, for me, that means lots of sweets, treats and yummy eats. My kids are grown now, so the days of Easter baskets and egg hunts have past. Although the grandbaby will be ready for all of that in a couple of years.
I loved baking cookies, cupcakes and cakes, picking out the perfect basket goodies and hiding eggs all over the yard. I did learn a lesson when my daughter was about 3. Don’t hide the actual hard boiled eggs. She thought she needed to hide her eggs so her brother couldn’t find them, and for weeks we were trying to figure out where that horrible smell was coming from!! Nope, from that point forward it was always plastic eggs with treats inside. The hard boiled eggs were saved for kitchen nibbles, deviled eggs and egg salad.
Now, when I made cookies, the never looked like these. I was a slice and bake kinda mom and, if I was feeling extra ambitious, I would roll that dough out and cut it with bunny shaped cookie cutters. The fun part was letting the kids decorate. Of course there was always that one cookie (or more) that had so much frosting and sprinkles on top, you could barely lift it off of the plate!
Now days, I look forward to creating some pretty cookies to share with neighbors and friends, so I found these gorgeous cookie ideas and just had to share them with you.
I just can’t decide which one to try first!
Any ideas?Do you view all spirituality or religion as delusional? If so, there's little anyone here can say will convince you otherwise. If you *don't* view all spirituality as delusional, then what makes this one any different? People light candles for the dead, pray and wish on stars - many "witchy" practices are similar to religious or folk practices. Worst case, magic isn't real but placebos certainly are - if doing, say, a confidence spell before a speech or an interview helps someone just because they think it will, then great. 

That said, there's something about the sentence "I'm a witch and I've put spells on people before" out of the blue that strikes me as... immature, somehow. It comes across as bragging, I suppose.In the first soccer tour to hit the Bay Area since 2019 and the first club game in San Francisco since 2014, a capacity crowd was treated to an entertaining match in which Real Madrid of La Liga and Club America of Liga MX squared off in an exhibition promoted as the “Soccer Champions Tour”. The result was a 2-2 draw thanks to goals from Karim Benzema (22nd minute) and Eden Hazard from the penalty spot (55th minute) for Madrid. For the opposition, their tally came from Henry Martin (5th minute) and Alvaro Fidalgo off the spot as well (82th minute).
Major players were brought in for this friendly as Benzema, Hazard, Toni Kroos, and Vinicius Jr played for Real Madrid, while familiar names such as Memo Ochoa and Jonathan dos Santos suited up for America.
The full album including what is posted from Instagram can be found here.
Real Madrid will conclude their tour with a match at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena against Juventus (Turin, Italy) on Saturday July 30 at 7pm. As the 2022 UEFA European Champions they will square off against Europa League Champions Eintracht Frankfurt of Germany in the Super Cup on August 10 before starting La Liga play against Almeria on August 14. Club America will return to league play with a match against Leon on Sunday July 31 at 7pm before another friendly against LAFC on August 3.I need to set up an email account on my laptop to send email using the MiFi2200. What outgoing mail server should I use?
If you don't have another ISP, you're going to have to establish an email account with Google, Yahoo, or Hotmail, etc.
I have my email accounts set up with my a web site hosting company. However I do not have internet access via this company. All of the other ISP's I have used over the years provide me with an SMTP server name that I can use to send emails when logged onto that account. I am a consultant that travels extensively hence the attractiveness of the MiFi2200 which is a great way for me to maintain email contact with my clients. However, It does not leave a good impression when they get their reply from |||EMAIL_ADDRESS||| etc. I am willing to splurge for a $10 dial-up for an ISP account if it will solve my problem. However in the past I had to log onto that account before sending emails or get the "Don't allow relaying" error. Having to log onto a separate account sort of defeats the purpose of the MiFi. AT&T broadband wifi will provide a SMTP but their 3G coverage is inadequate. Find it hard to believe that Verizon would handicap the MiFi2200 in this way.
﻿Texas bar tosses couple for violating COVID-19 mask policy: 'No masks allowed’. Hang Time Sports Bar and Grill in Rowlett, Texas, kicked out a couple for wearing masks earlier this month. Natalie Wester and her husband met up with friends at Hang Time Sports Bar and Grill in Rowlett earlier this month and were unaware of the bar’s "no masks" rule, she wrote on Facebook. Honestly, this makes this establishment look very ignorant. The establishment does not have a "no masks allowed" sign to notify patrons, according to the station, and instead has the hostess tell those wearing masks to remove them at the door. Check out the link for more on this.
Wow just wow... we are approaching 3 years since dday 1 and I know if my BH read this he would have felt almost every word. I teared up reading it just thinking about the pain, hurt and devastation in these words and how much what I have done has caused these feelings in someone I have always loved (not that I always acted in loving ways towards him).  

Its hard on these times to shut that shame monster down (its always lingering there in the back ground reminding me of who I really am), but I know its what is necessary because its not about me and how I feel but about what my BS (well as other BS) are feeling and how I help heal what I have broken. Thank you for this.  I stay in this sub to keep my perspective clear and to further know and understand how truly hurtful my actions can be and have been.The

Students Enjoy a Magical
Assembly
Lincoln students were amazed
by the magic of magician
