I hope everyone realizes I just use this blog to complain about weird food marketing.

But I also talk about things I make. So first, here are some cookies I made. I was less than impressed with them, and sort of overcooked the first batch but undercooked the second batch. I felt bad taking them into work, but I figured my standards are too high, and I was right, by the end of the day, they were all gone except one (out of politeness issues, I assume. BTW, that link is first when you google "not taking the last cookie." [not with quotes]). Anyway, Lacan notwithstanding (really, I don't think I've ever read him) the recipe was via Baking Bites, from Cindy McCain and scandal. I wouldn't make them again though.



Now to be curmudgeonly. So, I saw this bread at the Safeway. To my discredit, I actually bought it, since I like millet and flax in bread, even though I think "ancient grains" is a terrible name for a bread and not descriptive at all. It's not like this is made out of genetically engineered, previously extinct grains. (Unless it is, which would be awesome. But I doubt it.) I mean, this list is...grains. It's alright though, but sweeter than I like bread.
