You know that feeling when you pick up that favorite food and… it’s wrong?
Yeah. So that happened tonight :p. (That is Saturday night – when I’m writing this…)
I have this friend who comes over about once a month when my husband goes out with friends. I’ve known her for about 20 years since she was 15 and working with me at a fast food restaurant (incidentally, she gave me the worst burn I’ve ever had when she accidentally touched my arm with a fry basket fresh out of the fryer…I took her to the ER on Halloween one year when she had a bad steam burn…). Anyway, for nearly two decades, we’ve often shared “real food” when we get together. Now…the rest of you would probably call “real food” “Keebler Soft Batch Cookies” ;). And tonight, we got a burned batch.
AH!
Anyway – between finishing up one deadline last night (Along Came a Prince is turned in and releases Tuesday!), another tomorrow (More Than a Princess releases 4/30!), and one more by the end of the month (novella for a collection releasing in June), I really just wanted some really good “real food.” Ah well. We had some brownies (and there’s Ben and Jerry’s in the freezer but we haven’t gotten quite that desperate yet ;) – we’re only about half through Interstellar at the moment). It is kinda fun to watch with my friend who cries at the drop of a hat, though ;). She makes fun herself too, so it’s all good :D.
Anyway…
Overall, Soft Batch cookie issues aside, it was a decent week – I hope you had a good week!

Nothing spoils good cookies like burnt ones, lol!! But a batch of Keebler soft cookies burnt…yuck! Aren’t good friends great, Carol. 20 years of good memories…or bad such as burnt arms…ouch! I started out working at McD’s as a high school graduate (in the grill area) & I got plenty of burns! Not fun :-(
Hope you enjoyed your brownies…did you ever get desperate enough to eat the Ben & Jerry’s? That would cure any burn :-) Thanks for sharing what’s coming up this next week….always look forward to reading the posts! Blessings on your week, Carol!
