I like the rumballs I make. Brown sugar, cocoa powder, oats, vanilla, and a LOT of rum. Mix it all up, stick it in the fridge for a day, then take them out and roll them into balls and coat them with powdered sugar. Teh YUM.

I'm the middle of five. I can't imagine having that many kids, but I also can't imagine not having that many siblings. I realize the logic is...well, is it even there?
I was one of four, and so were both of my parents, and so to me it seems a perfectly normal number of children to have. DH, who has one sibling, thinks that 4 is an insanely large number of children, and doesn't understand how anyone could posslbly raise more than 2. So we'll probably end up with 3.
Oops -- half-double-post.
Um, or triple. Weird.
Why? Are you baking tonight?
Nope. I'm just bored, and trying not to fall asleep again.
Besides, now we are talking about cookies.
Congratulations, Wolfram!
Oatmeal cookies are the One True Cookie, but I like them crisp.
It's weird being an only child, since I don't have any first hand experience of any number of siblings, and think having the kids outnumber the grownups is just a recipe for trouble.
ION, I'm so ashamed. I made my dinner using a recipe off a can of Cream of Broccoli soup, and it's really good.
I LOVE oatmeal cookie dough and chocolate chip cookie dough. I do not like either cookie baked. I'll eat em if they are there, but I don't like them.
Hrm. Remind me not to bake cookies around you. Then again, I did train my husband to keep his hands off the dough until the cookies are in the oven.
There's a recipe for brownies in yesterday's LATimes that I want to try, but it will test the limit's of DH's ability to not eat the dough. It involves 9 oz chocolate, 5 eggs, about a tablespoon of flour, and a 30 minute rest period.
