Its been a long time...

I finished Sheldon! Here he is, up close and personal. He's coming up to say hi- "Hello, Sheldon!"


Here he is, in a more natural pose:

Sheldon! Be nice, now!



Much better! Thank you, Sheldon...Unfortunately, Sheldon will not be staying with us for very much longer. He's going to go in a box and be mailed to CA. Shhh...don't tell him- he's a bit claustrophobic. He's going to be a surprise for one of my cousin's on her birthday. But she's not suppose to know either! Hopefully, she isn't reading this.

Anyway, yesterday I was in a baking mood. I was going to make my MILs world famous (my world) Toasted Oatmeal cookies but didn't have any baking soda. Since I was at the store, I ended up buying chocolate chip cookies too. I made the Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip cookies from allrecipes.com. I love allrecipes.com. I can find almost anything on that site and they almost always turn out tasty, but I digress. Here's a picture of the cookies:


And just for comparison in sizes, I placed a quarter next to the giganti-cookie:



I could only fit four of them on the cookie tray!


Goodness...that's going to be another 45 minutes on the elliptical machine!
