Immediately following the Great Christmas Cookie Experiment of 2010, I found myself with a lot of time on my hands, and a serious desire to bake. Cookies were most practical, because they travel well and are readily available as individual portions for my husband's coworkers -- who were usually the (willing or unwilling) beneficiaries of my baking binges. I generally love anything sweet, but baking all these new treats was kind of addictive. I found myself baking at least one treat almost every weekend, when I had long stretches of unplanned time (which are necessary because
I'm slow I like to take my sweet time and enjoy the process).
You know what happens when you bake cookies for a few Sundays in a row, and bring said cookies to work a few Mondays in a row? People start to expect them -- to
need them! And I would hate to disappoint two whole offices full of salivating lawyers. So, I began to bake cookies. On Sundays.
(And to photograph the results).
