Cookie Monster





I've started an Etsy shop: www.kaajacookies.etsy.com. Pray that I sell lots & lots of yummy cookies to people around the continental US! ( I don't think the cookies would survive international shipping nor the slow boat to AK or HI). I can not take credit for the beautiful pictures of my goods though... A dear friend of mine graciously offered to photograph them (his payment was LOTS of cookies). Please check out his blog: keithkimphoto.tumblr.com - he does event photography as well.

The cookies pictured are my peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. I started with wanting to do more than just a basic chocolate chip cookie so I mixed in some good all natural peanut butter (peanut butter and chocolate are bosom buddies). Then I wanted the cookies to have a little more substance so I sprinkled in some oatmeal (to make you feel a little less guilty about eating a cookie or three). Lastly, I folded in quality chocolate chips. Why do all that work only to ruin it with subpar chocolate?

I got rave reviews from all my guinea pigs (my close friends) - the best cookie variety yet...

I know most people have made resolutions to eat better or work out etc etc etc but you know, you deserve a treat after doing all that hard work. Plus, depriving yourself is never a good way to eat better.
