Chocolate Chip Redemption

When a man fails to perform in the kitchen, it can wreak havoc on his psyche.  He might feel depressed, worthless, insecure, even emasculated.

I must confess that about a week ago, I was making my favorite and delicious choc chip cookies but things went awry.  I prefer mine to all others except two or three people I knew who make them better.  I have my tricks and methods to have them turn out like I want.   Out of confusion, which I can’t still understand, I didn’t put enough flour in.  I tried to recover after they had baked a couple of minutes but they turned out flat and crispy and gross.

Last night, I tried again.  I had been anxious…wanting to attempt again but scared of similar bad results. But, they were WONDERFUL!!  The dough was great raw, they cooked well, right size, nice and chewy.

I am back!!!  Thanks for reading.
