Yes Sistabec I am so swamped right now its insane!When i am not wearing my umpa superhero cape ,I am a landlord with 21 rentals!hehehe
If the cookies are crumbly they are either overcooked or not cooled completely.The butter ,xylitol and flours have to congeal after cooking.Does that help?Love my glasses! ::)

Hey! I went to B&N today to get your book. They had no idea what I was talking about and could only find info under Dougs name. What is the title and what is your pen name. I SWEAR I saw the annoucement on the forum but I have so much trouble moving around in them I couldn't find it again. CRS I guess. Hope to see u before ya'll leave! How's the house going? Anything I can do for you guys?
