"C is for cookie, it's good enough for me; oh cookie cookie cookie starts with C." –Cookie MonsterPromised the boys (all 8 of them) in my Current Events class that I'd bake them a treat for our next class.
So tonight I got out my mother's yellow pyrex mixing bowl and whipped up a batch of chocolate chip delights.
And I travel back in time: to the 1950s (elementary school child in school uniform, stirring and sampling), 1960s (college student mixing up a potent aphrodisiac for a hungry suitor), 1980s (young mother with willing little helpers), 1990s (empty nester sending care packages to scattered progeny), then back to the present (teacher rewarding a gaggle of high school males).
Chocolate chip cookies, the premier American comfort food.
“Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.” -Barbara Jordan
"Sometimes me think what is love, and then me think love is what last cookie is for. Me give up the last cookie for you." –Cookie Monster
