I baked (not tossed) cookies all weekend
OK - my GF did most of the baking, icing, etc .... but I finished off with the last batch of homestyle "urban legend" cookies. To honor my place in the alt.folklore.urban FAQ, I always feel compelled to bake the infamous "Mrs Fields" cookie recipe.

So that's what I spent yesterday evening doing ... 100's and 100's of chocolate/oatmeal cookies (to go with the 100's and 100's of everything else the GF made).

We are the cookie mavens of Eugene!

4. If you really want cookies
PM me with your address and I'll send you a care package after we get done next weekend. You'll have to supply your own milk though.

10. Sure I would
I make xmas cookies for the express purpose of giving them away.

We make a whole lot of different kinds. Here's what I can think of off the top of my head:
-chocolate chip with toffee bits
-white chocolate chip-craisin
-oatmeal raisin with cinnamon chips
-sugar cookies
-gingerbread men
-chocolate stars
-pecan balls
-espresso cookies (maybe - depends on if we're in the mood)
-cranberry swirl cookies (new for this year)

Then we also make fudge - chocolate with and without pecans, white chocolate, and peanut butter.

21. You take away all the fun
I was just going to post a picture of all the kittens you've needlessly murdered because of your 'loving alone'

And to think I was going to allow you to visit me here in Wilmington. I'm a properly young chaste girl!!!
