Well, you've read the notes, the notes inherited cookies even though this here site doesn't use cookies, and now it is time for you to post until the inherited cows come home - they inherited some COWkies.

And the word of the day is: LYCEUM!

And sanity and light - some of which we got yesterday.

Hopefully, I can watch The Prom at my sister's at some point. She has Netflix and I don't.

So, yesterday after I left my mom's, I decided to give the brand new Hawk's Prairie area (in Lacey) Chick-fil-A a try. The two drive-thru lines were each several cars deep, but I didn't think it would take too long. I figure that I was in line for about 10 minutes total. Anyway, I got the deluxe chicken sandwich and a diet Coke, and...I wasn't impressed. It was just okay...nothing special about it at all. You'd think that a drive-thru line would keep all the food fresh, but what I got wasn't very warm and tasted just like any other bland breaded chicken patty sandwich. It wasn't bad, but I can't imagine that I will ever go back...even if I'm in the area. Just my 2¢.

And now, I'm off to bed. Today, I might go in to work for a bit, or I might not. We'll see how I feel about it. Otherwise, I have no plans.

Have a good day, all!

I swear those cats must have catnip parties and get really high late in the night. Stella was really working my last nerve with her hyper activity. She finally did settle and sleep next to me, but I wasn't sure we'd ever reach that point.

I have two things on my weekend agenda: clean the bathroom and vacuum. Beyond that I'm doing nothing.

I also need to pay bills today.

Oatmeal raisin
Peanut butter
Snickerdoodles

My Aunt Jean, who knew that I disliked chocolate chip cookies, used to substitute candied fruit for ther chocolate chips. They were great.

We got our departmental "holiday" cookbook via email, a recipe exchange to replace a physical cookie exchange this year. There are some wonderful looking treats to try.

Peanut Butter Blossoms, a traditional peanut butter cookie with a Hershey's kiss planted in the middle, are always a favorite. I don't know that they're really a holiday cookie, but we always made them at Christmas, so to me, they are.

Now why didn't anyone send the backhouse neighbor something really useful, like a bunch of Omaha Steaks?

T.O.D.

No contest:

Chocolate Chip Cookies.

At approximately 5:25 in the a.m. I awoke from the single most disgusting Filthy Bathroom Dream ever. It wasn’t my bathroom. The whole thing was quite surreal. But it was “this close” to being a full fledged nightmare. So mine gets a thorough cleaning today.

(It even included litter boxes. Ours is in the laundry room, but that part derived from a small mess Mikey inadvertently left for me yesterday. There’s no rest for the wicked.)

Peanut butter, oatmeal raisin, and macadamia nut.

In an earlier life I would have started the list with chocolate chip. Now I generally find them cloying, and anything with chocolate is just an occasional exception. I was all over those warm gooey things from Mrs. Fields or David’s back in the day, but not any more.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #22 on:** December 12, 2020, 06:29:39 AM »

I would certainly try that corn thing BK describes, but the confetti one wouldn’t appeal.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #23 on:** December 12, 2020, 06:32:44 AM »

The Girl Scouts’ Thin Mints are another occasional favorite, but it’s because of the mint-chocolate combination. I also like the Oreos mint ones for the same reason.

We’re once again being blessed with some more unseasonably warm-ish weather. I think there’s going to be some rain today, but tomorrow’s supposed to be clear and up around 60, and I hope to get a little more outdoors work done.

Indoor work today, though. Have I mentioned I will be cleaning my bathroom?

LYCEUM was our telephone exchange when we lived in the country for a few years......LYceum 7-4398.

TOD:

Almond Windmill cookies, although they don't have bits of almond on them anymore.

Warm weather here, too. I have the window open and Barnum is screaming to his friends outside.....
