| I have been experimenting with the basic Joy of Cooking chocolate chip cookie dough recipe lately. It is nice because it makes a smaller batch than most recipes.
Here is the basic idea:
Cream 1 stick of butter w/ 1/2 cup of brown and white sugar Add an egg, a pinch of salt, vanilla Add 1 cup + 2 tbspns flour and 1 1/2 tsps baking soda
There are a lot of great things you can do with this basic road map. For example, using 1/4 cup butter and 1/4 cup (or a little more) almond butter. They are also great with a cup or cup and a half of oats added. Other additions: cocoa powder (at the egg, salt, vanilla stage), almonds, dried cranberries and, of course, chocolate chips/white chocolate/butterscotch. Oh, coconut too. I use whole wheat flour for everything and don't notice any negative impact on taste or texture | comments: Leave a comment  |

| This is my last avenue for procrastination. I have to finish my paper, it's time. I will and can do it be I DON'T WANNA .
Female genital mutilation is just such a downer, you know?
Mostly it's the 5 or 6 or 7 more pages I have left to write about it and how it relates to globalization.
Hmm. | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |
| MEREDITH!
Trey and I became enthralled in a political debate (no this is not a euphamism) and I missed our meeting. Now I need to do my paper. I was so looking forward to your insights! Can we meet tomorrow? I'm so sorry for being inconvenient. Could we do a dinner date tomorrow? 5:30? anytime tomorrow night? I'm sorry again. I will treat you to watered down chai at collins if you so desire for a post dinner drink tomorrow. Please do not take this evening as a standard of my commitment to you my dear! | comments: 5 comments or Leave a comment  |

| | As the mood would suggest, I'm feeling especially lonely right now. Someone should wake me up and be nice to me. It really is amazing how little things people say or do can instantly put me in a bad mood. This is why people should be nice, or at least not mean. I think I'm just going to go to sleepy sleep now because there is no one in the living room to entertain me. Here's hoping that tomorrow will be a fun day. Let's do something fun, okay friends? | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment  |
| Does anyone have an old copy of Understanding Business? Mine has yet to arrive and I need to do readings like now or something.

| here is a review (by a customer) of one...
Reviewer: Brockeim from Where the Wind Blows
We spend mornings together. Evenings are better spent separately, but mornings are when our friendship is the most piqued and perky. At about 6:00 a.m. I awake all haggard and gravel-voiced, not seeing any clear reasons for daylight. My view and the sun both lift more quickly when this coffee grinder is at work.
I like coffee fresh, and carefully prepare it from freezing my beans to using only the heaviest cream and clover honey to sweeten the taste. To have the flavor I prefer most, I grind each pot's beans. Of all the options, the Toastmaster Coffee Grinder is all I need.
When it whirs, it purrs, happy to help me through the day's waking labor. I treat it well, never abusing it with harsh cleansers or hot water.
I have made ten cups of coffee ground from this device. That is probably the limit of the grinding bowl.
I never ask much of this one-speed friend. It turns on when I press the button. It turns off when I release the button. How fine a grind is based on how long it grinds. I only make one kind of coffee, so additional settings are not necessary. It wipes clean with a dry paper towel. Most of you only use a simple brewer, and will be happy with this grinder.
For some reason I found this hilarious. | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |
