I made about 100 cookies last night, trying 3 different recipes for oatmeal cookies. What I have to conclude is that you should never stray too far from what Grandma or Betty Crocker has been baking all along. The worst recipe, very unfortunately, came from the Martha Stewart website, which surprised and disappointed me. The recipe is fine if you like cakey cookies, but who likes cakey cookies? Everybody likes the kind that are chewy and slightly crisp at the edges.
I also made some that were killer to eat but difficult to look at. Sadly, good food isn't just good food. Good food has to first be good-looking food. I guess many of us apply these same principles to people, as well.
Dozer has been clinging to me for the last 24 hours. I woke up in the middle of last night with him trouncing all over my face, paws on my cheeks and forehead. I wonder if he will be as agreeable when I stuff him into a box in about 15 minutes for the hour-long ride back to Diamond Bar.
Happy Thanksgiving, my friends.
