Cookie Hazard

At least I made Mario cookies to show him I loved him Friday night because I know I wasn't much in the way of company or companionship. I spent a lot of Friday engrossed in The Help which decreased my parenting ability and my baking capacity.

In order to produce perfect chocolate chip cookies with the ingredients Grampin' kindly provided in our pantry, I set up camp in the kitchen. Me, cookie dough, a Miller Lite, my novel, 2 chairs, and the oven spent a bit of time bonding. I thought this would be a fool proof way to keep from burning the cookies but I got carried away in the book. Next time I will have to use the timer rather than my baking intuition because apparently that sense is deactivated while reading.
