me on the beach the other day
im wearing sunglasses and a hat and a thin hoodie over Manifest Color’s wonderful shirts, on the beach at Ocean View. Someone else is holding up a plastic dinosaur in the background. Looking out over the Chesapeake Bay from Norfolk on a stormy day.

Question for the bakers making brown butter cookies. Do you find the baked and cooked cookies greasy? I have tried brown butter cookies but each time the finished cookie was greasy. Suggestions on how to fix are welcome.
