making amends with mr.weather

Lately the weather and I haven't been on the best of terms. You see, the past few days that I have had sessions scheduled...it has, without fail, been rained out. Yesterday was one of those days. Not only did it rain...but we had tornado warnings and severe thunderstorms as well! Not exactly conducive to a good photograph taking environment.

I was a little irritated with the weather at that point...

But I was determined to not let it get me down! Since my session had to be rescheduled, I all of the sudden had a couple free hours in my afternoon.

So I decided to make the best of the situation and bake some pumpkin cookies with brown butter frosting.

Baking is such a perfect rainy day activity! And these cookies turned out to be DELICIOUS! At this time of year, anything with pumpkin in it is a winner in my book.

I also made tomato basil soup and grilled cheese sandwiches...and husband and I read books together on the couch...while drinking hot chocolate! So, by the end of the night I was quite enjoying the rainy day we had. :)

What are your favorite things to do on a rainy day?
