  Nick and I have been talking about changing our company name.  We left it as Hechfamfarm98 for awhile, but finally came up with a new name.

  Today I looked through some saved recipes, read up on cream of tartar (to see if my cookies actually needed it) and created this recipe. Cream of Tartar (how do you say it Tar-Tar or tarter?) is needed for this recipe. It interacts with the baking soda, which makes the cookies puff up and then flatten out when cooling off. It also is what gives snickerdoodles their signature cracking. Here is the recipe: Sourdough Snickerdoodle Cookies Ingredients: 1 3/4 c Granulated Sugar  3/4 c + 2 tbsp Softened Salted Butter 2 Large Eggs 3/4 c Sourdough Starter 3 1/2 c Flour 1 tsp Baking Soda 1 1/2 tsp Cream of Tartar 1/2 tsp Salt Directions: Preheat your oven to 350°. In the bowl of your stand mixer add the butter and sugar and mix for about 2 minutes.  Now add the eggs and sourdough starter and mix until creamy.  In a smaller mixing bowl add the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and the salt and mix with a fork.  Add these ingredients to the stand mixer bowl and combin...

  For my birthday I got these  Magnetic Nail Polish . I painted my pointer and middle fingers with a pink/green color with a shiny topcoat. Painted my thumbs in white with a matte top coat. Painted my ring fingers and pinky’s with white, used  This Nail Tool  to paint purple dots and “flowers”, and then put the shiny topcoat on.

  This year for one of my presents from Nick’s parents they got me these magnetic nail polishes. They don’t work as well as I had hoped, but it’s okay. I still like the colors.  The instructions say to paint one layer of black on, set it with the light, then paint a thin layer of the magnetic paint and use the magnet to move the colors around. Then set it with the light and then put a topcoat on. These are the colors: Here are some of the colors on my nails.
