Thing I have learned today: if you add an ounce of coffee concentrate to 2 oz of whipping cream, you can still whip the cream.
Last week I discovered coffee flavoured chocolate chips at the store, so I decided to get some. They were kind of chemically tasting themselves, but the cookie dough combined with coffee kind of tasted like a Coffee Crisp bar. Yum.
Mmmm. All of that sounds good.
I guess I'm going to have to bake tomorrow.
But you guys, seriously, when am I going to start packing my apartment?? Tuesday at best. I guess it will be fine.
Ooh, I will have to look for the coffee chocolate chips. That sounds right up my alley.
You'll get packed when you get packed, Jesse, it will be fine.
Yeah, I mean, I could do it all in a weekend, I figure. I won't, but I could.
At Philcon, and this congestion is still kicking my ass. Time for hot tea...
Great to see you! Hope you feel better soon.
To be clear, since I don't think my last post was, I ALSO added some brewed (and simmered to reduce liquids) coffee to the cookie dough itself, along with the coffee flavoured chips. The cookie dough was so good.

Oh, my, that's a very exciting idea! Thanks for clarifying I did not completely understand before.
Coffee chocolate chips sounds really delicious.
I have had an intense kid day -- boy scout service project in at 8:00 and I led a Girl Scout hike at 9:00 (which was super fun... or at least more fun than I thought it would be), after yesterday which was an intense kid afternoon (Noah and Grace bowled 4 games).
Then we bought a new car. And completely cleaned out the old one. Target then Lemonade for lemon meringue for K and then the library where I got 5 books, including the new Benjamin Black.
K took my Saturn to be appraised and they offered her more than twice what she would have been happy with. So that's all good.
Now I have to get the kids in the bath, fold all the clothes and go to bed.
That all sounds good! But also just like a lot. From my vantage point of sitting on the couch all day except when I took a nap, anyway.
