January 6 - fail #1 and cookies! January 6, 2015 23:14

Today is a sad, sad day. Between still being exhausted, actually taking the dog out, and having a doctor's appointment, I decided to try and learn how to knit. After 2 hours I ended up with a raging headache, a nap, and a collection of knotted yarn. Fail. 

I soon gave up and decided to make pom poms. Unfortunately I HAD to choose the shedding yarn and they ended up useless. Fail. I'll save the pom pom idea for a future project I have in mind. 

So I made up some cookies so this day doesn't go to waste. And they were KICK ASS. This is an approximate recipe since I made them up as I went.

• 3/4 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/8 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 egg
• 2 tsp instant coffee
• 3/4 tbsp Cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips 

mix them all together, spoon onto a cookie sheet, and bake 10 min at 350. These. Were. Amazing. 

Maybe the day wasn't a full waste afterall. 

Om nom nom nom.
