I'll leave you with a GREAT recipe, a No Bake chocolate chip cookie pie.......it's quick and yummy!

Prep time:7 minutes or so...
Chill: 8 hours

1 (15oz. or 18 oz.) pkg of chocolate chip cookies (I use Chips Ahoy)
1 c. milk
1 (9oz) commercial graham cracker crust (extra serving size or deep dish)
1 (8oz) container of frozen whipped topping, thawed

Dip 8 cookies in milk, and place in a single layer in graham cracker crust. Top with one third of the whipped topping. Dip 8 more cookies in milk, and place on top; spread with one-third of whipped topping. Repeat with 8 more cookies, milk and remaining whipped topping. Crumble 2 or 3 cookies and sprinkle over surface of pie. cover and chill for 8 hours before serving. Serves 8.
For cookies, we used Nabisco Chunky chips Ahoy. You'll need 26 cookies for this recipe (you may have a couple leftover cookies from the package. What will YOU do with them?)

1. What's been your go to meal for the summer?
I do a marinated italian chicken that we BBQ, roasted red potatoes, fresh fruit salad.

2. What do you look forward to cooking in the fall?
I love soups and cannot wait to start making them again

3. Is there a spice that you do NOT like?
I don't think so. I can think of lots of other things I don't like but not spices

4. What's your biggest food/meal prep challenge?
Learning not to cook for a small army. For years with the girls home we never knew how many "extras" would be around so I always made plenty. It has been very hard to scale back : )

5. Would you enjoy having a personal chef???
I love to cook but I think a personal chef for a month or 2 would be wonderful!!
