Ethics

I laughed so hard after reading this Girl Genius. The final panel did it for me. No wonder I enjoy the company of cats so much.

Cookie coma

Wow these cookies are good...

And since I care about everyone else, here's the recipe off the back of the butterscotch chips.

Oatmeal Scotchies
1 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract of grated peel of 1 orange
3 cups quick of old-fashioned oats
1 2/3 cups (11 oz pkg) nestle toll house butterscotch flavored morsels

Preheat oven to 375

Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated suger, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in oats and morsels. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

Bake for 7 to 8 minutes for chewy cookies; 9 to 10 minutes for crisp cookies. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Makes about 4 dozen cookies (that you will really enjoy).

Dead in here

Think I just saw a tumbleweed.

I hope to start posting entries soon. School is on week 9, 11 weeks per quarter, so things are kinda moving along now.

Tivo and TCM have been nice to me lately, there was a Sean Connery marathon. So I was able to watch a bunch of his older work while I was drawing/shading: Shalako, The Great Train Robbery, A Fine Madness, The Wind and the Lion, and others.

That's all I have for now. Back to the grind. I'll write more later.
