I go to Great Harvest and buy their homemade cookies. Baking is hard.
Kaylee: Is that him? Mal: That's the buffet table. Kaylee: Well how can we be sure, unless we question it?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I want cookies now. I think I'll spend my first day unemployed next week (Tuesday) baking, eating homemade chocolate chip cookies, and sulking. Then I'll get back on the job hunt Wednesday.

Still waiting for Ginger to post One True Cookie Recipe (and hoping she doesn't mind a chocolate chips are Far Superior to raisins substitution). About to reach for Trader Joe's Oatmeal Chocolate Chip 100-calorie cookie pack (not as good as homemade, but since I actually have them right here...)
edit because I can too spell chocolate correctly.

I like dates better than raisins in cookies, because they stay moist. Oatmeal cookies, like chocolate cookies, are kind of tricky because they start out brown, so it's hard to tell if they're brown enough.

Who has two thumbs and is still sitting in Chicago? That's right, this guy! I hope to make it to Ireland before the end of the week.
