If you do, -t, I can totally count Reece's peanut butter cups as my protein.
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

Oh, I do that all the time. Totally protein!

Peanut butter cookies are my protein.
Well, okay, dinner was quinoa and eggs because I was craving protein hardcore and when you marry a vegetarian there is no bulgogi in the house.
But generally, peanut butter cookies = protein. Maybe I'll go have one now.

You know what surprised me? That almond milk doesn't have more protein than cow's milk. It seems like it should, in my head anyway.
I haven't made peanut butter cookies in an age. I should do that. Do you put the crosshatch fork marks in yours, Tep?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I feel like I should be more concerned about the targeted marketing and the information-gathering than I am. It's just, it's hard for me to be outraged when it's nothing more than I expected. They're a business. As John Rogers said, "If the service is free, you're not the customer, you're the product." I get what I want from Facebook, and they probably don't get a lot from me given how I use it. Liese, your info was really good; that gives me ideas how I can manipulate FB into doing more of what I want. If I can be bothered, which I probably can't.

I haven't made peanut butter cookies in a very long time, but yes to crosshatch fork marks!
Huh, what was my dinnertime protein? Cream cheese and mozzarella, I guess.

I do. I am WAY old school. The peanut butter cookies are the easiest thing in the world and are naturally gluten-free. They rule. (Of course, they're about 99% sugar, but hey. Nothing's perfect.)

Whoo, cheese! And old school peanut butter cookies!
My grandmother (the sort of crazy one) made great peanut butter cookies, as well as homemade cinnamon applesauce. She also set the table (full place settings) for breakfast the night before, but I let that slide.
Wait, Tep, yours don't have any flour at all?

I wonder how those cookies would come out made with splenda. Hm.
Or I could just eat peanut butter with a spoon. That's pretty satisfying.

Nope -- 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg, and (not totally required, but helpful) 1 teaspoon baking powder. Mix it all together, roll into balls, roll balls in extra sugar (not required but...come on), moosh cookie balls with tines of fork, bake for 10 minutes, let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving to cooling rack, let cool for 10 more minutes, then try not to eat them all in 2 days.
