Well it started when I received a phone call around 7pm asking me to take place in an indoor farmer's market tomorrow from 1:30-4:30 at the Discovery Channel building. Only 6 vendors were being allowed in.
1 of my products is chocolate chip cookies - easy to make and I sell 3 for $1.00 - perfect for this type of event.
10:30pm I'm wide awake and everyone else is out. I decide to make the cookies I need for tomorrow (just 1 double batch)..... trouble is no one is around to do the taste testing.
I (being the brilliant person I am) swear something is wrong with the dough because it just doesn't "smell" right
So I taste it - and it tastes ok - and I spit it right back out!
So I made some "chocolate cream cheese mixture thing" yesterday (like a mousse almost) and have a bite of that to get the chocolate chip cookie taste out of my mouth. 1 tablespoon cured my need for something sweet (probably that TOM is approaching
) and water finished it off.
Gotta tell you - since I've started this WOE I have made at least 4 batches of cookies and never was it this bad of wanting to eat more - even before the taste test! That's why I think my TOM is coming because it is a rediculous craving. Luckily I think I have it covered for right now. But to fend it off - I needed to write about it.....

Next week I'm making pumpkin pies for my husband to take to work and we use the pumpkins we grew so it's a little more work than usual. HOWEVER - I usually have someone on hand to do a quick taste if needed and last night of course since it was so late, everyone with their right mind in my house was asleep.
