Last year, when I was applying for jobs like a crazy person and waiting to hear back on some serious offers, I remember baking banana muffins one night. I saw the recipe online and there were always overripe bananas in my sorority house. Whether it is to celebrate, apologize, relieve stress or simply
just because, there is a language to baking that I absolutely love. I will be the first to admit that my cookies aren't the prettiest, my cupcakes are rarely frosted to fondant perfection and I like to follow recipes to a T (creativity schmeativity), but boy there is a ton of love with everything I do.
Tonight, I made my first batch of chocolate chip cookies in my new apartment. It made the place feel (and smell) like home. Kind of like my home in Fresno, my sorority house at UCLA and my
"home
" in Sonoma. Thank goodness for the simple joys of mini chocolate chips and cookie dough.
Happy Friday lovelies!
Mmmm, I love chocolate chip cookies! There really is something heart warming about a batch of chocolate chip cookies baking :)

DeleteHmmm, I am thinking care package? ha!
ReplyDeleteIf I could figure out how to mail cookies so they stayed fresh, I totally would. They are best out of the oven :)
DeleteMmmmm, they look so good, especially the dough.
