Good idea. I think I'd better bribe my iPad with some Nutella to get it ready for the school year, I've let it play games all summer...

A day off, don't need to go anywhere or do anything, could go right to sleep and snooze off the day.

And what am I doing? Sitting up and surfing the web. :roll:

There is no day that cannot be improved by the consumption of a chocolate-chip cookie. Unless, of course, that chocolate chip cookie is an M&M chocolate chip cookie. :)

and that day can be improved even more if you have at least 3 or 4 of such M&M chocolate chip cookies and a tall freshly brewed cup of coffee with a touch of cream :D

I'm pretty sure that's the worst case of moldy chocolate chip cookie I've seen to date...

I am intrigued. Let me guess, chocolate chip cookie dough pressed around frozen Oreos, then baked?

It needs to be a double stuffed Oreo. Because double stuff of today are almost like original Oreo's. Yes I am that old.

I had a feeling that the filling was getting thinner over the years. :cry:

don't you realize that that was the PURPOSE of the cardboard tray thingy in the candy-bar package? it was to be able to shrink the candy but still have it "look" bigger than the competition's.

same thing goes for the filling in the Oreo's, they shrink it little-by-little, then they can put it back to the old "normal amount"and sell it as "double-stuff" cookies... for more money, naturally...

That is what I get for having them once every couple of years.

I actually don't like the double-stuffed Oreos...too much filling. I like the frosting to cookie ratio as it is, even if it's not how Oreos were originally issued. :)

I've heard macarons are quite tasty, and I'd love to try them...but I don't know where best to get good ones (without it costing an arm and a leg or requiring shipping)... :)

Actually heard you can make a substitute buttercream frosting using avocados (had to go back and edit that before posting - accidently typed 'buttcream').....

I had some other stuff to write, but never mind. ;)

As far as I'm concerned, buttcream would be a step-up for avocados...

Yeah... I seriously doubt avacados work on well for hemorrhoid relief. Image
