Spent today baking cookies :D Did a basic dark chocolate + coffee mix, then after the first batch I decided to start playing with the ingredients that were in the kitchen. So I have a batch with some white chocolate, a batch with some almonds, a batch with marshmallows, and cookies in different sizes and degrees of flatness.

I have learned one important lesson: when baking cookies containing marshmallows and cookies containing almonds on the same tray, the marshmallows will toast long before the almonds do, not the other way around.

I was hoping to be able to get the marshmallows to melt and the almonds to toast, but well /o\ Probably next time I'll need to toast the almonds before mixing them into the cookie dough. I should also chop the marshmallows up smaller and put them inside rather than on top, ahahah.

My hands smell so good right now!

(two more days...)

Hey, as long as the cookies are edible (and they sound like they would make great nibbles, just saying), no complaints from this direction.

Gads, imagining the smell of your kitchen while those cookies are baking is the stuff that inspires crack fic, yes, it is. *grin*

Mmmm! Cookies! Oh, that would be a nice thing to happen - after you get back. Let's see how the serendipity of it all will flow, shall we? :)

Hope you have lots and lots of fun and no interference from customs/immigration/Mother Nature, too.
