Chocolate Cookies: An Important Part of Sanity
When I get stressed out, I bake. It just happens. It serves as a rather delicious coping mechanism, if I do say so myself. As it so happens, the past few days I’ve been extremely stressed, and had a completely inexplicable craving for chocolate. I knew there were about fifteen boxes of brownie mixes in the pantry, but we had those earlier this week, and I wanted something different.
