homemade oreos for you

follow this recipe if you like happiness.

you shall need 
1 package of chocolate devil's food cake mix
2 eggs ~ cage free taste best and are kind~
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
1 stick of butter, softened
8 oz of cream cheese, softened
3/4 cups of powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

you will
heat the oven to 350 degrees
mix up the cake mix, eggs and oil until it's completely moist and sticky
roll the dough into balls slightly larger than a quarter
place them on a greased cookie sheet
bake for 8 minutes ~ check at 6 minutes, you want to take them out before they're done
[they'll continue to cook on the pan after you take them out to cool
trust me, take them out when they're still a little dough ...ey]

while they're cooling
cream the butter
add the cream cheese
mix well!
add the powdered sugar slowly until you reach your favorite consistensy
add the vanilla extract

if you have a kitchenaid it works best, however i used my blender and my boyfriend

now
take the frosting and however you desire to, 
fill up those cookies!

[i think they're best warm]

let me know if you love them! (you will)

love after love

The time will come when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say
sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger
who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread.
Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life...

Take down the love
letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs,
the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit.
Feast on your life.

~Derek Walcott
