To Dunk Or Not To Dunk

Hello, dear friends.  Baby, it's cold outside.  The only thing that is keeping my spirits up is that it's supposed to be in the 50's next week.  That's practically Mom-kini weather!

Today I am linking up with Terri who tells us that today is National Oreo Cookie Day.  To read about its origin and to check out other blogger's answers go here.



1.  Are you able to pass by a plate of cookies and not take one or are you a bit of a Cookie Monster?

I am married to the original Cookie Monster.  Maybe we'll call him the Cookie Mister from now on.
  
No matter where we are, the Mister can sniff out a freshly baked cookie from a mile away.  He cannot pass a bakery without buying at least half a dozen of their finest.

2.  Tell us about your favorite cookie.  
Have your tastes changed since you were a kid?

I have sworn off cookies for a while.  But when I rejoin the cookie scene, my first choice will be Panera's Kitchen Sink cookie.  The copycat Recipe can be found here.

No, my tastes nor my conduct have gone unchanged since I was a child.

3.  Enquiring minds want to know if you are a dunker and, if so, do you dunk in milk, coffee, or tea?

My sweet neighbor, Susie is one of the best bakers I know. At Christmas, she sent over a beautifully wrapped package of her mouth watering biscotti.  I actually hid it from the Mister because I knew that he would inhale it in seconds.

I took dunking my biscotti into my coffee very seriously and enjoyed every scrumptious bite. 

Here is a Recipe that I found for biscotti.
It's probably not as good as Susie's though. 

4.  It is that time of year, and they are selling them on every corner and in front of every store.  Do you buy Girl Scout cookies and if you do, which is your favorite?

This is what our car looks like if the Mister spots a Girl Scout.

5. Raw cookie dough.  Yay or nay?

I prefer my cookie dough to be accompanied by ice cream and hot fudge.  No sprinkles, please.  If you haven't heard, I'm on Weight Watchers.

6. Please tell us something random about your week.

I really want to see this movie this weekend.  I'm going to tell the Mister that it's a war movie.

Until next time...
