Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

I kind of feel like making homemade Fig Newtons with fresh figs is a waste of figs. Goat cheese + squished out fig + baguette = heaven.

Really? Because I'm not really much of a fig eater. But Noah will eat them as fig newtons. This is what happens when things show up in the CSA box. I've also made a ton of baba ganoush with eggplant. I'm stretching culinarily!

Also made: an ale, cheddar, cauliflower and green chile soup that is heaven. I have embraced the cornstarch trick and it helps the cheese melt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And I am ordering in mediocre sushi and being appalled at the unrelated deadlines I need to meet Monday.

Amyth, totally had the fruit fly thing a couple years ago. Gross, huh? Happy birthday, Perkins.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I want to bake something tomorrow. I have chocolate chips and the bare basics. Should I just make chocolate chip cookies, or go to the store and make something more exciting? I am also considering chocolate-peanut butter something. Consideration: I have only one egg in the house. But would be happy to make half a recipe that calls for two.

Thoughts?

I've made these salted chocolate peanut butter cookies once and they were good. Plus you only need ONE egg!

Peanut-butter chocolate chip brownies, if you have flour, oil, cocoa powder and baking power.

Er, baking POWDER (but I left the typo in because BAKING POWER!)

Ooh, those look good. I'm currently thinking about this one: [link]

Jesse, I meant to add, to make the chocolate peanut butter, just melted chips into the PB because I didn't have cocoa.

Ooh, the salted chocolate peanut cookies sound awesome! ...now I want to bake.

I also want my friend who's visiting town to call me back. At least to let me know what the plan is...

Earlier I met zuisa! She exists!
