When Life Gives you Lemons, Make Lemon Basil Cookies

Lately it’s been inevitable, my good days almost more than likely get ruined by someone, or an incident. It seems I can’t escape misery around here… What can I do? What do YOU do to feel better after a bad day?  Or will it get worse?

It's another long weekend and I'm stuck in this chair and typing words that I'm not sure to be read and taken seriously.  While my friends are enjoying their trips, posting photos of unusual food from best-kept secret restaurants, I'm sulking over an incident which could have been prevented only if enough love and understanding were exercised.  But what can you do when something like it spoils your day, making you uninspired, and wretched.

If you are in the same muddy situation, well, let me tell you that you need to go on.  I'm sure you life is better than mine.
Let me cheer you up with these three batches of cookies I baked a couple of weeks ago.  Today, I was supposed to bake some cupcakes for a kiddie birthday party but sometimes life will challenge you to the core.  My oven broke down.  Yes, these cookies are the last to grace my oven.

I always say this to myself, " when life gives you lemons, make lemonade."  But this time why don't know try making Lemon Basil Cookies.  Though mu day isn't getting any better, let me share the recipe of my recent favorite cookies, hoping it make ups for something.

Now, presenting, the three cookies with happiness built in.

 

 Don't you think it's a great idea as a Christmas gift?
