Tomorrow is double-training day at work. I'm stressed, I'm cranky, I'm having a really bad period, and you know what that means...cookies. Yes, cookies. When I'm this irritable, I either a) call Mars (who is in Wisconsin), b) write poetry (which is next on the list) or c) bake cookies. Assloads of cookies. Metric assloads of cookies. When I start baking, it's not merely a social event; it's a religious occurance that goes a long way towards explaining, once again, why I follow Coyote.
So few gods understand the proper importance of food, after all.
Upon getting home from work, I pulled the contents of the baking cabinet out onto the counter, debated briefly with S., and finally settled on tonight's culinary extravaganza: butter cookies with semi-sweet chocolate chips and fully-sweet butterscotch chips. I estimate that I'll have somewhere between five and eight dozen, when I'm done, depending on how large I make them. Some will be eaten tonight; most will go to work with me tomorrow, to be sucked down by the ravening hordes.
Life doesn't suck just now.
