I have an old paperback cookie recipe cookbook that I have had for years….so long in fact that I have lost the front cover with the copyright date on it. On the second page it has the letters MCMLXV and knowing this somehow relates to a year I googled those letters and found out it is the year 1965 of the Gregorian Calender (looking at the illustrations/drawings in the book I would have guestimated it was somewhere around that time frame).
What exactly is a Gregorian Calender you ask? You can read all about (and then some) HERE! My eyes were actually crossing by the time I was finished!
Now in my antique cookie cookbook is an easy, no-bake, scrumptious Fudgy Oatmeal Cookie recipe. The granddaughters came over the other night and I didn’t have any cookies so I quickly made these up-much to the hubs delight (he simply cannot have just one, or two, or three or….well you get the picture!).
Fudgy Oatmeal Cookies
2 c. Sugar
1/2 c. Milk
1/4 lb. Butter
3 Tbls. Cocoa Powder
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Vanilla
1/2 c. Peanut Butter
3 c. Quick Cooking Oatmeal
Combine sugar, milk, butter and cocoa in a pan. Bring to a full boil for one minute-timing accurately. Remove from heat and add salt and vanilla. Blend in peanut butter then the oatmeal. Mix well. Drop by teaspoon on wax paper. These will become firm as they cool.

New photos of our Hint of Asia collection. We actually did two photo shoots with this one. The first with a more Asian theme, the second a more light and airy spa theme! I love them both!

I finally have the new photographs transferred from the dvd to our computer for upload to our website….
But before I did that I wanted to introduce you to the second half of ‘my’ graphic design team! Not only is she proficient (and quite good!) at graphic design but she is outstanding in photography as well!
Star Morris of RatStar Creative took the utmost care, skill and knowledge and captured the essence of what Country Meadow Ltd. is about. I am truely thrilled with what she has done. Because we didn’t photograph our entire product line (plus we are working on more rebranding labels AND possibly adding new scent collections!) there is another photo shoot scheduled for sometime in August.
I would like to thank both Star and Amy (EcoKind Design) for having the vision, knowledge and talent to bring Country Meadow Ltd. to the forefront of eco-friendly spa products!
(We have added link to RatStar Creative in our Shop at Our Favorite Vendors catagory)

As of this morning our website host is still trying to figure out what the problem is with our website security certificate. For some unknown reason (or so they say) it has not been updated so an error message appears.
The fix was supposed to be just about instanteneous but it is now over 24 hrs. later and we still do not have this issue taken care of.
They assured me that it is being looked into and will be taken care of as soon as possible (while we in the meantime have the appearance of being less than professional!).
I ‘strongly’ asked if it could be taken care of today PLEASE!
We would like to thank you for your patience.
Thank you!
