"This I believe" Freewriting

I believe making cookies isn’t always easy:

Some may say making cookies is easy, but it’s not always so. It’s like them saying “easy as pie”. Making pie isn’t easy! At least not for me. Maybe it is for chefs or people like my older sister who loves cooking. I wonder if….I don’t know. I lost my train of thought. Trains. I’ve never ridden one but have always wanted to. I lived in Boston once and rode on an underground train, if that counts…back to cookies. When I make them there is a mess all over the place. Flour, sugar, chocolate chips, butter and so on. I usually mess up the batter or cook them on too high or too low a heat so they get all flat on the edges and burn but the middle isn’t done yet. That’s all fine and dandy when you are making brownies, but not cookies. Unless you like burnt/undone cookies. I don’t. I’m running out of things to say about cookies. My favorite are just good ol’ oatmeal and chocolate chip. Yum! With vanilla ice cream. Make an ice cream sandwich with them and stick them in the freezer for later. My sister and I did this once. She is better at making cookies. They were chocolate cookies with peanut butter chips and vanilla ice cream. Amazing! Ok how much time is left? I don’t know my timer isn’t somewhere I can see, just hear. It’s my husband. He is suppose to tell me when to stop. I really am running out of things to say. Sorry to all my readers if you are getting board! I kind of am too but at the same time this is kind of fun to not really have any purpose but writing. Maybe I should working on making better cookies? Probably. I’m not very enthusiastic about any kind of cooking unless it involves “Stoffers” frozen dinners. Those are good and easy! Not as good as my mother-in-law’s food but better than mine. Man, this is a really long 10 minutes! Cookies. Mess. Ovens. Timers. I’m done!!!
