Guest Blogger, a recipe, and photo topics -Whew what a Friday!

Little man is sharing a picture of some cookies that he enjoyed after playing in the most recent snow.  Coming inside to cookies and hot cocoa has become a tradition. These are Oatmeal Toffee Cookies.

Those of you that know these are hungry already. Those of you that don't, are totally missing out! :)  But, because you should not miss out on such cookies. I say, make some of your own.

Oatmeal Toffee Cookies

• 1 cup MOUNDS Sweetened Coconut Flakes (optional-we don't add these as we are not coconut people)

2. 2 Stir in oats, toffee bits and coconut, if desired, with spoon. Drop dough by rounded teaspoons about 2 inches apart onto prepared sheet.

FYI: Photography things I have on the docket to cover based on what has been asked so far:

• Tips on using a DSLR--this will be multiple posts!
• Where to begin with editing? (Beginners based and again multiple posts!)
• Nailing exposure (Oh my, this is really more for a one on one session with a camera in hand. But, I will see what I can do for you via a blog.)
• Workflow (I can cover the basics, but I always think this is more of a personal style than a formula.)
• Tutorials on: Popping the color, Enhancing the eyes--honestly folks this is more about finding good light than post processing. But, we will discuss that.

Any others to add to my to do list? Shout them out.
Have a great weekend everyone!
