Look to the cookie

I really love black and white cookies, so I figured what better way to celebrate their yumminess than by doing a blog post about them. I would like to thank Sam and Jason for getting these cookies for me as a thank you for helping them move this weekend. I packed a cookie to take to work with me today for a snack. I have been looking forward to it all day. Now it is time to eat it.

The cookie has quite a history. Some may remember the Seinfeld episode that brough the phrase "Look to the cookie" into our vocabulary. There's also a great recipe on that page you can try if you want to make your own black and white cookies. Enjoy!

Mmm.... dinner

I absolutely love to cook. So does Dane (a huge perk of having him as my boyfriend). Last night Dane made rice and beans with chicken and chorizo. I think I could eat that forever and be happy. Well, maybe with the occasional Italian dish thrown in. I love my carbs. Anyway, I also like to try new things. So I'm hoping someone out there has a delicious recipe they might want to share with me. I'm hoping for dinner type things here, but would happy to get some dessert/appetizers or whatever else there is out there.

Our meals in the past week or so have included:
Grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, and vegetables
Rice and Beans
Fettuccine with olive oil and garlic (Pasta Aioli)
Orange chicken with vegetable fried rice
Homemade chicken soup

We also made 5 dozen pumpkin chocolate chip cookies last week. Then we made apple crisp this week with the apples we picked at the orchard. So the challenge is on, anyone have a good recipe I could try?
