It's the night before the annual cookie party and I've used the "f" word against a harmless bowl of dry ingredients...twice.  Tomorrow I need to present five dozen cookies that are globally inspired...a twist on our traditional gathering.  All I know is that I should have thought twice before choosing a recipe from a blog called "Ambitious Kitchen".  Seriously, what was I thinking?  Next year I will certainly seek out recipes that are more my speed. 

Mental Notes:  Must google "inferior culinarian blog" or "unremarkable chef blog".  Food Network, I may be on to something here. 
 

So the brown-buttered, salted caramel, nutella dough that now sits in my fridge tastes interesting at best.  That was literally what I said to myself, "interesting", when tasting the batter.  That can't be good.  Anyway, I hope I keep getting invited to this party before someone figures out that I'm there just to score other people's cookies.  Because damn these girls can bake.  Wish me luck tomorrow.
