Cookie Monster!




Charles's dad is incredibly generous. He also apparently has connections to the Keebler Elves, because he gave us- among other things like Honeydew melons and potatoes sweet and white- a 50 pound box of Hydrox meal. Hydrox's are like Oreo's- and the meal is the chocolate part, not the white part- crumbled up. Excellent for cheesecake crust, mixed into ice cream and milkshakes, in other things.....but I'm not quite sure what to do with 50lbs of it. That's allot of cookie dust.
Of course, the manz made marvelous milk-shakes right off.... ice cream, peanut butter and cookie dust. Chocolate peanut butter heaven. (Diet? What diet? I know nothing of diet) but WOW were they worth it. So last night- the first night in a week that I was feeling human and awake past 8pm, we had milkshakes and watched movies, just relaxed. It was nice- today we were up early (but someone got our selling spot!) so we found another and sold more furniture, a trolling motor and one of my painted milk cans- the one with cats and geraniums on it. Wish we had more milk cans as they are quite popular, everyone seems to like them. I also worked on a boat painting but I can't quite get the boat to sit in the water right- it's just a rowboat in a stream. Now we are home for lunch and showers, cooling off and perhaps a nap before auction time. Tomorrow is my time to tackle the Monster's lair!
I was teasing Charles that we should just save the box of cookie dust and give it, some milk and a spoon to grendel when he gets home.... Happy boy-food! Seriously- any cookie-dust suggestions would be welcome! Happy Days!
