Cookies
The other day, with the help of Lisa and Matt, I made a batch of cookies, which were probably the best things I’ve ever eated. So in my lack of anything to do I thought I’d give the recipe, so the awesomeosity is shared. (Just so you know, this is copied from the book, so don’t blame me if the convesions are wrong)
Need:
- 150 g (5 oz) plain flour
- 50 g (2 oz) unsweetended cocoa powder (I left this out to have plain cookies)
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 115 g (4 oz) unsalted butter
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz) sugar
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz) brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz) milk or dark chocolate chips
- 100 g (3 1/2 oz) white chocolate chips
Method:
Done! =)
- Pre-heat oven to 160 degrees Celcius (350 F / Gas mark 4)
- Sift together flour, cocoa, soda, baking powder and salt, set aside.
- Beat butter and sugar until smooth and cream and beat in the egg and vanilla.
- Add the flour mixture and mix until almost blended.
- Add the chocolate chips and mix.
- Scoop dough onto a baking sheet in balls (bit smaller than a ping pong, unless you want them big)
- Bake for 12-14 minutes.
whew.

For anyone keeping dibs on my epic gallbladder, I received word today that my application for MSI has been approved. I’m off the hook on 20+ thousand dollars in hospital debt, but my gallbladder still sucks. I think it would be neat if the surgeon did a live blog during the operation. It would go something like this:
9:00am : I’m washing my hands in preparation of removing
left legkidneygallbladder.
9:10am : Just finished my 8th cup of coffee. Maybe I shouldn’t be operating on this guy on 2 hours of sleep in the last 3 days.
9:30am : Initial incision complete
9:31am : Mmm… that nurse has a hot ass.
9:32am : Whoops.. flatline
9:40am : Okay, patient is alive again.
HahahhahahAH, you’d hope not

[Here’s] A little kinetic sculpture of the lovely Twitter Failwhale, based on the image by Yiying Lu that is used when Twitter.com is over-capacity. The image is called’ Lifting up a Dreamer’ I’ve wanted to make this since I first saw the image some weeks ago. (via MAKE: Blog: Twitter Fail whale… a 3D sculpture from the MAKE Flickr photo pool)
