Today's topic is very light and fluffy and delicious. Cookies are wonderful. Baked goods of all kinds are, actually. But there's something about a nicely made cookie that seems to be filled with magic. You know you have a good job when you're allowed to stand in the back licking cookie dough off a spatula and out of the mixing bowl. And when I say mixing bowl, I mean an industrial sized monster of a mixing bowl.
To me, baking, and cooking in general, is always therapeutic. I wouldn't say that I'm a food snob of any kind, but I was raised right, on home-cooked meals (mostly), fruits and veggies included. I like kitchens. I like how tangible the act of cooking is. You throw a bunch of ingredients into a bowl, mix it up, cook it (or cool it, depending on what you're making) and voila, you have the product. An edible, yummy, delicious product.
11:11! Make a wish.
Anyway, that's going to be about it for today. I've had a long day. Now one last midnight snack and I'll be sleeping away.
Cheers,
