Lucia in the cookie class.

Good day everyone, welcome to my blog.

It was Aunty Monica's birthday. Aunty Monica is a big area sister to my friend Lucia who is a childhood friend of mine. We've been together for ages. We do everything together. During the weekend, we are either at hers or mine so I have to take part in aunty Monica's party.

We went to the local market in our area to buy the needed materials and ingredients for food and drinks. We got home pretty late in the evening and I had to make cookies because I had promised that I would support the party with my delicious cookies.

Lucia feared that I may not be able to make the cookies again because time was already against us. I left Aunt Monica's place around seven in the evening. By the time I got home it was past eight in the night. I took a light dinner of fruits, took a shower then went straight to bed. The following morning, I got up early at around 1am in the morning, I started my mixing and baking. Before four in the morning I've made more than 200 pieces of delicious cookies.

I packed the cookies and every other thing I'll be needing and off I went to the venue of the and business of the day (aunty Monica's house). On offloading the cookies and every other thing from the vehicle Lucia was surprised. She said Ah you are able to make it You mean you made all this This early morning And I said oh yes I did.
**
She said huumm, cookies must be really easy to make then,for you to make this much Given that the day has just broken this early morning**. Then I said to her Babes please stop, Cookies is not as easy as it looks to make Is just that I've set my mind to do it, If it's not easy then I need to learn how to do it I need this kind of skills to keep myself busy, Okay don't worry One of these days I'm going to teach you how to bake.

We enjoyed the birthday party, saved our guests, entertained everybody with good music, good Vibe and everybody went back to their houses after we did the packing and cleaning then we forgot about it but Little did I know that Lucia was still Interested In learning how to make delicious cookies. A few days after the party at my place.

She appeared at the door like an angel wearing a fine long beautiful dress with silver jewellery with a pair of beautiful wristwatch and fine silver slippers which she said was given to her by her boyfriend. I offered her refreshment and before long we got talking as she offloaded all the things she had in the bag she brought with her. Lo and behold, the things in the bag were the ingredients I had listed that will be needed in making cookies on aunty Monica's birthday. I never knew she was serious about it though.

The sun was out so the weather was very hot. I had to give her a pair of jeans, a short sleeveless short dress with another flat slipper that I wear around the house to change into before we started making the cookies. When we started, Lucia said babes what do you want me to do? Then I said to her don't worry, just wash your hands and watch me. I give us two bowls. I had one for myself and another one for her. We used exactly the same measurement of flour, sugar and butter then the mixing began.

We had only mixed The butter and sugar batter for few minutes when Lucia said Omo I was like **what do you mean, You enjoy delicious cookies don't you? **she said yes, i do then I said you know I told you the other time that it is not as easy as it looks she said oh I remember that, You mean you went through all these To make hundreds of cookies with in that short period the other day Ah I admire your courage. I responded saying thank you but you have to learn all the same.

After a lot of encouragement, whining, laughing, and mixing through pain and arm ache, all that Lucia was able to make were few samples and I was proud of her. All that matters is her progress. It was delicious. She enjoyed it and took some home to her boyfriend. For me, it was not a wasteful day after all because we all enjoyed ourselves.

I like how this story showed friendship and patience. From baking 200 cookies before dawn for Aunty Monica’s birthday to finally teaching Lucia step by step, it was both fun and inspiring. Her effort, despite the arm ache, was beautiful.

Lucia now knows that is not easy to make cookies but when you put your mind in it, it is very easy to do.

Lucia managed to make the cookies. She struggled at first, but then learned. Have a nice day.
