Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Cookies!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Mmmm, cookies. That is quite an assortment.

Ok, so if my hot water is suddenly more like lukewarm water, do I call a plumber in the morning?

Our friend Jules made them! She called them "One Percenters" and they won Best Overall!

Bob won Best Presentation for his windowpanes (colored marshmallows in melted chocolate rolled in crushed pretzels). I'm very proud!

meara, could your pilot light be out?

All of those cookies sound amazing. So far I have peppermint mocha, triple chocolate cranberry oatmeal, and butter cookies (cutouts with sugar).

Recipe:

Oven: 400

1.25 c butter, soft 1 c sugar Juice of 1.5 lemons zest of 1 lemon 3 tsp lemon extract 1 egg

Cream together butter and sugar well. Add lemon juice, zest, extract and egg. Mix well

2 c flour 1/4 each salt and baking soda

Slowly mix in dry ingredients.

Chill at least 3 hours, pref overnight

Make balls basically marble sized, maybe a little bigger. Press flat (I use parchment paper over the top and then smash with a glass. I also bake on parchment, because I'm lazy.)

Bake 10 or so minutes until edges start to brown, barely. Let cool slooooowly, to maximize crispness.

Fill with biscoff spread.
