I left the cookie dough out on the counter while I was running errands and at yoga and my husband sent me a text:
“Unrelated, sometimes the barometric pressure can make the cookie dough batch look like a few scoops are missing – that is simply a trick of nature. And, I’ve heard that a spoon of cookie dough is good on a Ritz cracker – just sayin’.”

And that’s how we roll.

This text made me SO happy. SO happy. My love language is food. (And, as we all well know, baking cookies is my disease, so positive cookie feedback sends me into an over the top HIGH).

I don’t need drugs.

I just need to bake!!!
