    I'm currently having a staredown...

    with a nestle toll house chocolate chip cookie. Thus far I'm winning. I'm not entirely sure how they got into my house...but this morning there they were...on the sofa table...I blame the neighbors...or the cookie gods. My first guess is the neighbors because the cookie gods don't have a key to my house.

    Just so you all know, cookies cheat at staring contests. They have more eyes than you, and they don't have to surf the Internet while they should be working.

    Cookies only know one thing...being eaten. This cookie will never experience cookie afterlife.

    Bring it you chocolate chipped demon!

    Re: I'm currently having a staredown...

    I had a similar incident yesterday. Cookies were on the table. I have not had one cheat since started but it was HARD yesterday to not take one little bite. I told my husband that I thought I was stronger than this but apparently not. I had to fight the temptation ALL day.

    Meant to add that I survived...so can you

    Btw, I love your posts, you have a great sense of humor!

      Why not take a short cut and flush it right now - that is where it is going to end up anyways. But that may not be a much fun as a stare down. Go Gary Cooper. I am rooting for the good guy here.

        I'm still winning. *yay me* Not that the cookie has a chance in hades, but I had to taunt it...I took it out, smelled it, gave it a wink, and then put it back...then got up and walked away. (Is this still a staredown, or just cohabitation with a cookie?) Either way, I took one of his brothers out, broke it in half and fed each half to one of my dogs. In front of the cookie that was taunting me.

        So now it knows not to mess with me...and my dogs are happy!

              I have survived the cookie. I actually stared it down the entire day while working, and then sent it piece by piece down the garbage disposal. Felt great. I cried myself to comfort into a 16 ounce 1 1/2 inch thick ribeye steak. Oh, and some grilled asparagus. All drizzled in a butter with garlic, cracked pepper, kosher salt, and a few sprigs of thyme and rosemary on the steak.

Holly Heck talk about rough! ....and I too smelt one of the cakes, lol....but that is as far as it went...lol.

                Thanks again for the laugh and great job on winning!

                  Oh you do walk on the wild side, MissLiss. You know what they say about playing with fire: you'll burn your eyebrows off and your hair will smell funny on fire. Those demon desserts always start with a sniff. Oh, yes, they entice you with a waft. "First hit's free" they seem to whisper. Then the "inadvertent" tongue contact. There you are sniffing in perceived safety and secrecy, lost in your imaginings, when the phone rings, startling you terribly, causing your arms to fly up in alarm. The cookie is now a missile as it hurdles toward your face, grazing your lips and chin leaving crumbs on your shirt as it races like a Kamikaze pilot to the ground. Then out of reflex your tongue protrudes and sweeps the tiny crumbs from your lips. In that very moment, the Evil One has gained access to your immortal soul. As you sweep up the remains of the cookie, preparing to deposit them into the waste bin you can't help but feel a bit forlorn that this tiny culinary delight is now covered in dirt... which triggers a buried school yard memory. Yea verily dost thou recall the scripture of thine youth: "God made dirt. Dirt don't hurt." Suddenly it becomes clear that God is now a part of this cookie and to simply dispose of it's remains so thoughtlessly would be a sacrilege. After all, this is your soul we're talking about here. And so, feeling a new moral obligation, you eat that crumbly dirty cookie. And everyone knows you can't have a cookie without a glass of milk... Before you know it you are a food-porn star who goes by the name of "Mandy Muffin Top."

                      Those are the Atkins friendly type of snickers.
