happy autumn and no yoke

"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."

happy fall/autumn!

fall is one of my favorite seasons! it reminds me of going back to school, halloween, thanksgiving, wearing sweats and uggs, baking, drinking tea with the momma and sister, etc.

the past 19 years i have been going to school with fall begins, and the past 4 i have spent the beginning of autumn in malibu. this year it is great to spend my fall at home.

i have so many autumn plans for this season and my first was to bake some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. but thanks to the grocery store, there is still no pumpkin puree to be found! so instead i decided to bake some chocolate chip, oatmeal, coconut cookies. after getting all the ingredients ready, i noticed that i had forgotten to get eggs! (we were never really a big egg family) being that it was 9pm and i didn't want to go back to the grocery store, i decided to google "no egg chocolate chip oatmeal coconut cookies" I found a website. though i was a little skeptical (replacing the eggs was boiling water mixed with baking soda) they actually came out really tasty!

i am going to bring them to our bible study tonight...hopefully everyone will like them!
