I love cookies as much as the next person, but making Christmas cookies are the best during the holiday. Especially, when your family goes all out with baking each year making almost ten different kinds. Making cookies, but just baking in general is so much fun and the outcome is so worth it! So, here are some types of cookies I make each year that you might even know about:

1. Chocolate Chip Cookies

The classic chocolate chip cookies are one of the best types of cookies especially when they are still warm and the chocolate chips are all soft and runny.

2. Sugar Cookies

This type of cookie is great for the person with a sweet tooth, but is still an all time favorite because of that sweet vanilla flavor. You can do so much with this type of cookie too. Like make drop cookies, or cut outs, and you can even make the popular kind with frosting and sprinkles/jimmies.

3. Snickerdoodles

Another classic type of cookie, but that is rolled in cinnamon sugar and baked to perfection.

4. Peanut Butter Cookies

As long as you don't have a peanut allergy and like peanut butter, you may like these cookies. You could make these with creamy or crunchy peanut butter even with different kinds of nut butters like cashew or sunflower seed.

5. Peanut Butter Blossoms

This is variation of the peanut butter cookie, but instead while they are still warm you put a Hershey kiss in the middle and it becomes a delightful combination.

6. Coconut Cookies

Coconut cookies are a different type of cookie, but are still absolutely delicious. If you like almond joys or mounds, you'd definitely like these. They just don't have chocolate on them, but I'm sure you could put some on them if you wanted.

7. Oatmeal Cookies

These type of cookies definitely have a love/hate relationship with most. You can add really anything to them whether it be chocolate chips or raisins. I personally love both. It has a very comforting taste and can is a great holiday cookie.

There are many types of Christmas cookies that people can make and enjoy. Its great to try new ones each year and cookies are a great type of dessert that is easy to make and everyone can help make them. You can bring people together when you make them together and its the best and most fun thing to during the holidays.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
