Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies!

Well I realized I didn't have enough cheese to make my Chicken Delight so today we just had leftover chicken soup again. I don't know if I clarified yesterday that the recipe of soup makes A TON of soup! So today our menu ended up being as follows:

Breakfast: Cereal
Lunch: Soup
Dinner: Soup

Yes lots of soup. We like it though so its okay! Tomorrow I will have to make something new to give us a break from chicken soup!

I plan on going to get a few groceries tomorrow so I should be able to make a good dinner. I plan on making Chicken Delight so I will post the recipe tomorrow. It is a family favorite! I am also going to try making homeade cookies for the very first time. I'm going to be making the Toll House Chocolate Chip cookies because that is what I'm contributing to small groups on Thursday! I am very excited to try making cookies! I think this will be a lot less expensive then cookie dough. I'd love a price break down if anyone has one for this recipe.

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
