Last night, I had a dream where the fire department came. It was a volunteer fire department and no one was on call, so they had to really get themselves together and it took them about twenty minutes for someone to get over to the house that I was in. Of course, like in many dreams, it was not the house I was currently residing in. I am thinking about what this dream meant, and have come to a couple of conclusions. While I don’t believe the dream was in any way prophetic, I opened up my browser and found something miraculous that didn’t require any heat.
When I was a kid and my mom baked peanut butter cookies. I would eat the cold raw dough on a spoon. Looking back, I wonder if that recipe included raw egg. If so, the queen of tacking Dear Ann Landers articles to my bedroom door warning parents about turtles and salmonella slipped a little bit. By the way, I never had a turtle. I had lizards and they never came downstairs to make cookies with me.
The cookies, when they were baked, didn’t seem as interesting to me as the cookie dough for some reason. Imagine my delight (I can’t really do “delight” first thing in the morning, especially when I have a black eye from a home improvement injury that I will explain in a future post) when I saw what David’s Cookies sells. They sell a set of tubs of COOKIE DOUGH. I kid you not, LOOK RIGHT HERE!. You get two 3 lb tubs of cookie dough to make cookies with to economize. The site does nothing to warn people about eating raw cookie dough, so I am just going to ignore the “serving suggstion” of forming the dough into cookies and baking. I will get in to less trouble that way.
Anyway, wth two tubs you can make 96 1 ounce cookies. Or one giant 6 pound cookie. You would have to use Gordon Ramsey’s oven for that, or go to the pizza parlor and use their big oven. That would be one crispy chocolate chip. I wonder how big those cookies are that they have at the mall that they write a birthday greeting on. You could make one of those, or a few, out of the dough.
David’s Cookies has many other offerings, of course. All of the items are kosher, so you can be sure you will not be wedged inside of a faux passe when giving a gift to your Jewish friends. Also, I was always under the impression that if something was kosher it was somewhat healthier or had less preservatives, then I realized some stuff isn’t that healthy for you whether it is kosher or not. However, in my mind these cookies are healthier and have less calories than their standard counterparts, and it is all about mind over matter, isn’t it?
