C is for Cookie

In my previous post, I noted how diligent I was about diet and exercise. However, I do have my "kryptonite" (actually quite a few food weaknesses) but cookies certainly top the list. No matter how hard I try, I find it almost impossible to say no to a cookie.

During a hectic week at work last week, Siskel emailed me about a potential shoot. Within the 48 hours leading up to the shoot, this was on again, off again, on again, off again, on again, off again - you get the picture. Siskel was quite apologetic about the back and forth (although unnecessarily so) and asked what he could do as a means of compensation for my time.

My response: Please pay me back in cookies.

Well lo and behold he did! The surprising thing was what Siskel thought were 'suspect' cookies from the Times Square Deli were actually quite delicious. The chocolate chip cookies had a light crunch to it on the outside and large chunks of gooey chocolate chips on the inside. Deli cookies have a tendency to be oily but not this one. The oatmeal raisin and the chocolate chocolate chip on subsequent visits also fared well. Yes, Siskel may have created a cookie monster!

Goldie likes to schedule "COOKIE TIME" on Friday afternoons at 3pm when the coffee shop on the concourse of our building does their weekly two-for-one inventory clear out but perhaps this week I will venture outside for a full price superior cookie.

Siskel - I give this cookie two thumbs up!
