My life partner's Birthday is on Monday and instead of a cake, he asked for homemade Great Harvest style cookies.

If you haven't tried the cookies from Great Harvest you are stupid...and probably a lot skinnier than me.

I was surprised to find out that the recipe is online! I was even more surprised to discover that the recipe calls for 0 teaspoons of vanilla! Instead, it calls for molasses.

Curious, no? I've never used molasses and it doesn't smell very good.

But the cookies were delish. I made one batch regular, for you freaks with peanut allergies. And one batch with walnuts.

If you ask me the walnuts make the cookie. Walnutetter is always better.

They tasted 400% better than they looked with my camera phone.

This is the recipe I used. http://www.recipelink.com/mf/14/24199 I highly recommend it!

Hands touching hands reaching out touching me touching you

Can you imagine hanging out with these handsy bitches in the Country Crock commercials?

For some reason this hand soaked commercial got in my head this morning and sent chills up my spine.

Check out a few of their past commercials below. Waaaay too much hands touching hands.

Falling Backwards

Have you ever noticed how when someone trips/slips/falls/or just barely stubs his or her toe that person looks back immediately? As if to save face by looking back and letting your audience know that something else, whatever it was, is to blame for your trip.

People always look back at the cause, lets say its an uneven brick, and then look around at everyone who saw them fall. Then without fail, that person moves their eyes from the brick to the audience and gives a sort of shrug.

Like saying, "Ugh that brick is such an asshole. That totally wasn't my fault. You guys know that, right?"

There is no point in this. It just makes me laugh because it never doesn't happen.

Home Repairs Made Stupider

Christsluts light ;)

Just add bobby pins for a more sporty look!

When life throws you netted lighting, when you meant to buy a regular strand, plug those nets together and make it look like a set of boobs.

Then when you feel inappropriate in your own back yard due to said boobies, makes those boobs look like a sports bra and encourage girl power and physical fitness.

America the Beautiful

Happy Election Day Divoliticos.

I hope you are all out there asserting your right to vote...in something fabulous!

I myself am not voting today because, I am truly embarrassed to say, I have a stronger opinion about whether or not it's ok to hold hands than I do about who should run our local legislative offices.

That being said, I'm sure someday I'll be rich and famous and have to worry about the local and statewide goings on, as I will have multiple homes all over the country and buckets of money that need to be taxed fairly.

But in the meantime, I vote NO on handholding! It just isn't natural!

Pumpkin Spice cakeookies with homemade cream cheese frosting.

They weren't all that great, but they took forever to ice so I had to photograph them.
