Second Son came home from college for the weekend because he had a big Genetics' paper to work on...he also had 6 loads of laundry. :)
Second Son has a band. He writes music. They perform. They use to practice in my laundry room....but now they shake someone else's walls and damage someone else's hearing. :) He was on his way to practice on Friday night and he happened to mention that he can never buy white chocolate cookies without nuts. Now this Mommy loves her little boys....and loves them even more when she knows one won't be with her for Thanksgiving.....so....at 10:30 at night I decided to make my little boy some white chocolate cookies without nuts.
First problem....no recipe...hey, not a problem....there was one on the chip bag. Second problem....tiny print....hey, not a problem....I am sure it says 2 1/2 cups of flour.
Well...when the cookies looked the same coming out of the oven as they did going in....I knew there was a problem. Yep...I should have just stayed in bed....or at least put on my glasses.....
They were not what either of us expected.....
But Second Son still ate the little lumps while he worked on his paper on Saturday afternoon....he has a good heart. :)
Friends....my kitchen woes didn't end there.
Being inspired by a cookbook I picked up at the Goodwill last week, I offered to bring some pies to a gathering on Sunday evening.
I got everything ready....
Little did I know when I snapped this photo that it would be the last time for my beloved Fire King Jadite Batter Bowl....
It happend so fast....
Stupid new pastry cutter.
