caramel, why must you thwart me?

And I should have known. I did have a funny feeling about it, but

Hey, gorgeous. I want to make my boss some cookies that might go well with bourbon--what do you think of these?

[imaginarycircus]

I've made those before. They're yummy.

Do they fall apart when you make them and/or after? I have to transport them to work, and it would be nice if she could get them home without having them totally crumble to dust.

I don't remember them being all that crumbly.

Of course, I could always make kourabiedes instead. I know those transport OK. Although I've never made them, but how hard can it be?

[imaginarycircus]

They aren't hard to make at all.

I think I'll go for that. I can make a boatload since I probably have to give someone to my whole "team" if I give some to her, which is so dumb but whatever.
