Chocolate x3

Dear Portland,
I finally did some baking today!!
I came home in the late afternoon with a strong urge to turn on the oven and make me some happiness (even with the 80 degree weather bearing down). After I returned from figuring out some work shifts I will be covering at Flora, I sat down at my computer and looked through cookie archives on some of my favorite baking blogs. And then I found it.
TRIPLE CHOCOLATE COOKIES.
Yes. Absolutely tempting just from the title. I read through the recipe and wrote down a couple things I needed and drove to the store just as fast as my little truck could take me. It took a little longer then I had hoped because the sunshing seems to be turning everyone into horribly mad drivers and I was contiuously avoiding almost accidents.

I came home read through the recipe again and put on a podcast from How Stuff Works called "How Traffic Works" and away I went. It was wonderful to be back in that world again. A house to myself, learning about something completely irrelevant, and creating chewy goodness.
They came out great, if I had a flour sifter they would be perfection. But for now, greatness will have to do.

The Learning Curve of an Adult Child is singularly me. I suppose it's about the trials and tribulations involved in what "they" call being a grown-up. But maybe it's just about things that happen and things I think about... (Also, that is my computer generated pirate name) My other blog, [hap]hazard, is my best friend and I. We enjoy adventuring.
