COOKIE EXPLOSION!

The Start of the Madness....  I felt like baking.. and when I do I turn into my mother. I make enough to feed the city of New York. -haha-






Today's Special:
Chocolate - Chocolate Chip Mint and Chocolate - White Chocolate Chip Mint

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 10 ounce bag of mint or mint+chocolate chips (about 1 1/2 cups)
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla.
  3. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Stir into butter mixture until well blended.
  4. Mix in the chips. Drop by a rounded tablespoon onto an ungreased baking sheet. [I like to use a small cookie scoop and a half sheet pan lined with a silpat or parchment paper]
  5. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or just until set. Cool on pan for about 2 minutes then cool completely on a wire rack.

Leading A Second Life - Dedicated My Ass

I have always found it funny that a lot of people live a second life. For Instance you have a person who claims they are Buddhist and run Positive websites and community service programs but on the other end of the stick I've seen that person do Coke lines off of Pool tables, bang out "crew" dudes, and to have them backing their positive websites when they are the most insensitive, uncharismatic, bullies, rip off artist, and Ass Clowns.  On top of that the person is truly insensitive,  and rude themselves.  I honestly don't believe they have a Center.

 I thought Buddhist were suppose to be positive people, happy, one with earth and life.. Doing away with negativity and not surrounding themselves with that.... I dunno.. People suck!


I just needed to vent!
