oh crap

Election crap isn't over the MN - the senate race is too close to call:
1,210,790
42%
1,210,028
42%
437,146
15%

with 99% of precincts reporting. That means there will be a recount and a serious look at the absentee ballots and....

*VERY BIG SIGH*

eta- As of 6pm the race is 121644 for Coleman and 112167 for Franken so the margin is 477 votes!!!

seriously. They're missing out on one of the best things in the world!

Second only to licking the bowl after pouring chocolate cake batter into the pan.

oh yes- licking bowl and spatula and spoon is very important.

I'm always a little appalled when I see someone put them in the sink and rinse them with tons of dough still clinging to the sides

Same here. I mean, what a waste.

Ok, now I really want to go make more cookies.

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-11-10 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
I got some of that pre-made dough on sale, so I can make a few, put the rest back in the fridge, and no one is the wiser.

oooh, that stuff is dangerous!

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-11-10 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
oh yes! absolutely. But I never had any luck eating only a little at a time

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-11-10 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm thinking the freezer might be a better location for the unused dough.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-11-10 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
probably. Unless you need to chow down at a moments notice again soon

Meh, they make decent sized cookies. I think I'm good for awhile.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-11-10 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
what kind of cookies are do they make anyway? is chocolate involved?

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-11-10 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
of course I still have tons of left over cookies from the Bat Mitzvah chaos so I shouldn't complain. Out of the 36 dozen or so I made, we brought home maybe 4 dozen (a LOT were eaten the second night- 50 13 year olds can eat a TON)

I was quite the mad baker for awhile there.

there was the issue of not having a clue how many would come on friday night. The range was anywhere from 30-150 people. that's a big range
