" I love it!
Another great day yesterday! My daughter made cookies (chocolate chip - a little on the underdone side) this week and I am going to have her make some this weekend because I have been thinking about them some...
Here is how it went: She doesn't have much time in the evenings when she gets home because she is VERY involved in school stuff. So, she had to break up the process. First she asked my permission. Then she made the dough and put it in the fridge until the next evening. She hid it way in the back where I wouldn't have to see it. (Plus, I think she didn't trust me, and who could blame her.

) The next night she baked them off. She was running out of time before having to leave again for school, so I took the last batch out of the oven for her. And I forgot to mention that she was baking these for her boyfriend to take with him to music camp. I told her when she asked my permission that she would have to leave a few for us for the weekend. Then, when I was putting them in the container for her to take with her that evening I decided it might be best for them
all to be gone, so I packed them all up and they are gone.
But yesterday I began thinking about them and I wished there were a few left for the weekend. Man, they looked good! But a fresh batch will be much better, so I am going to ask her to make more. I could make them myself, but stuff always tastes better when someone else makes it, don't you think? (As long as they are good cooks, that is...)
Anyway, is there a lesson here for me? I think it's that, whether I have them this weekend or not, I am enjoying the anticipation. When I do instant gratification I miss all this "delicious" anticipation!
