have a good time! squeeze some yarn for me.

i really do love those cookies. i'm going to have to try them i think. have a great trip! can't wait to see your pictures of leaves!

Those cookies look so good! I seem to have gotten lost in the shuffle of my projects as well. Working on little things here and there, but not making any progress anywhere. Have a wonderful trip!

okay...now I know you're in the same boat as me...unfocused. Have a great long weekend...I'm off to make cookies!

There must be something in the air as I'm slightly un-focused myself.

Enjoy your long weekend. I'm sure it's just what you need. :)

enjoy the long weekend - focus or not - sometimes you need to just not focus! the cookes look good! along with that apple crisp! YUM!

Those cookies are adorable! Seriously! Actually, whenever I see acorns, I picture them with faces... Have a safe trip!

I see little heads in knit caps too. Have a great trip!

enjoy your trip! those acorn cookies are adorable!!!

Have a wonderful weekend. I can't wait to hear about it. And dessert is totally more important than the main meal! BTW the dessert counts as a fruit/vegetable (on my food pyramid anyway).

Yep, I see little heads with hats too.
Have a great trip!

Enjoy your weekend away! Those cookies are too cute -- I think they're screaming out for little faces, too.

Gorgeous photos, Leslie! And you're so funny about the faces. Elisabeth looked over my shoulder and said, "Look! Acorn-shaped little cookies!" So, it might be just you. ;)

Have fun this weekend!

Don't worry, I'm sure the focus will come back. I love the little acorn faces!

I think the cookies like heads with caps on them too! It's funny you say you're not focused--I truly admire your ability to finish so many sweaters in year!

Have a wonderful trip! I love those acorn cookies!!

Have a good trip, enjoy the foliage!

When I was little my mom would call the little acorn hats "mini-hewnie" hats for the mini-hewnies. So I definitely picture acorns with little faces.

Have fun on your trip!

Your acorn cookies look awesome. I have never seen those before. Hope you have a very nice time away.

those look too cute to eat.. well.. almost.. :).. have a great trip!! and see you Saturday!

cookies look like acorns- but made my mouth water!
the leaves are wonderful...
hope you have a great time away

I love the acorn cookies! too cute.
Have a great long weekend trip! I can't wait to see the gorgeous leaf pictures you'll take!

I thought they were acorns as soon as I saw them :)
Enjoy your lovely weekend. I'll be enjoying it for sure, it's my birthday Saturday ;)

have a great time!

I'm sorry you forgot to pack ME! I so want to see Fall. I'm in Texas and in my area I'm not seeing much yet. Have a colorful weekend.

I love those cookies !!! The leaves are pretty too.

Mmmm. Those cookies look delicious.

Have a fun trip! Take lots of pictures!

On the focus thing girl, I feel your pain!

Cute cookies, acorns or not! By the way... I tried the cinnamon cookies--so good:)

Have fun dear Leslie! Be good!

Cute cookies! And I can picture them with faces... my kids probably would too, but they tend to turn most of their food into little dolls of some kind.

Have a wonderful weekend away-
happy knitting-

another trip???lucky girl! enjoy the yarn...squish one for me!!

Oh, I'll have to try those cookies with Jorn. You're not heading to Rhinebeck are you? ;-) I have to sit this one out this year.

Love the cookies. Have a great weekend seven hours in the car wow. I'm off to Rhinebeck on Saturday and am pretty sure that I will be feeling scattered next week as I imagine having some new yarn/patterns to add to my stash after Saturday.

Those cookies are hilarious! They remind me of when I was little and we used to collect acorns and draw faces on them:)

I can see the faces!! ;) Have a great trip.

have a nice holiday.

I am with you in the unfocused place. I have so many projects that NEED to get done but somehow I find just about anything else to do instead. Its those darned have-to's that have me fuzzy.

I am so jumping on the cookie of the week bandwagon! I love it. I make cookies a lot around here but it is usually spur of the moment and without much thought, chocolate chip or oatmeal. Last night I was craving peanut butter hershey kiss cookies. No kisses so I put a little pile of chocolate chips in the middle. Mind if I join you?

Cute cookies. I think if the tops were less brown and nutty (with nonpareil or jimmies) then they would evoke faces more than acorns.

Very cute cookies! Have a fantastic time!

Love the acorn cookies. Great idea.

I've made those little acorn cookies before and not only are they cute, they are yummy!!

Oh, those cookies look so fabulous. I just gave up sugar. It's killing me!

In Florida, we never get colors like that! Thank you for sharing!

those cookies are fantastic.
enjoy the travels!

Can fall be any more perfect a season? I'm feeling a bit unfocused too. I hope you had a great weekend away!

Hi Leslie. I Just wanted to let you know that I love your blog and that you've been nominated for an award :)

huge thanks for the acorn cookie idea, thrilled to have found your blog :o)

Hi Leslie, I don't think you are alone, everyone seems to be unfocused, there is a lot going on in our world right now. I can see them as both acorns and faces with cute little berets! Hope you weekend was great!
xoxo,

Mmm...acorn cookies -- yum! Why not make dessert before dinner? It's the most important meal of the day!

I enjoy reading your blog. You don't seem to be posting as often. Are you traveling?

I made these cookies yesterday with my 3-year-old and she totally thought they were supposed to be faces, which may not say much about my cookie-shaping skills.

Have a good trip, good lucky tai game iwin qua tin nhan
