We eat, we sleep, we get up and repeat.
Never to care to add a little spice;
And pick up our sticks to play a drum beat
Or roll your life by playing with the dice.

Our life is a result of what we make
Add sugar and spice plus everything nice;
It should turn out to be a grand big cake.
Don’t forget love, it will double the price.

Homemade cookies always beat the store bought brands;
So reach for the stars and shoot for the moon
Don’t be afraid to take hold of your hands
Turn that spoon like you a flying baboon.

Ingredients are only up to you;
There is no book or even a how-to.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

Favorite Quote:
"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
