OMG!!! I died and went to heaven this week. Really. Here you thought I was taking time off to rebuild the blog–and, as you can see I did do that–but it was a stretch. A strain on my non-tech savy psyche.

And so I called out the old girl in distress helper…tada…comfort food!

Disclaimer # 1: There’s a recipe here somewhere.

cookie

Best cookie ev-ah!

In this case, home made chocolate chip cookies. This is the part where heaven comes in. OMG, if they served these instead of communion wafers I’d be in the front row EVERY Sunday. Yes. I. Would. Little nip o’wine, little bite of these babies and I’d be signing up for the altar guild in no time flat.

Because they are THAT good.

Disclaimer # 2: I did NOT eat them all. I took some to work. Held them in front of my co-workers and told them the price for a bite o’heaven was an Arty Life appearance. Really, would you rather see photos of ingredients or appreciation?

Besides, I didn’t want to clean my kitchen for a photo shoot.

Here’s Dieter. She’s strangely...pink in this picture. And Greg lurking in the background like a Calvin Klein commercial.

See what I mean? Romancing the cookie.

And then there was Leland. No one can romance a cookie like he does.

A serious case of tasty bliss. The real deal, or so he said. He SWORE he was not faking.  He also promised photos in a pink dress if I would bring in more cookies.

Which is a good time to introduce the newest Arty Life category and regular feature, What Leland Wore Today. Stay tuned for future installments.

Disclaimer # 3: The recipe is down below. Is that a cool recipe card or what? I filled it out as best as I could but when it comes to cooking, I cook like I paint. Which means, umm… by the seat of my pants when it comes to ingredients and measurements. A lot of eyeballing and palm of the hand stuff. To my recollection this is kind of sort of the way these came together.

So print out the card and give them a try if you’re so inclined.  And I’m thinking you can review the recipe too, judging from the Write a Review link.
