Unemployed Friday’s rock I have to say.  Every other day of the week sucks but Friday I enjoy.  I spent the morning making these awesome chocolate chip cookies, in case you were wondering the best recipe in the WORLD is on the back of the Trader Joe’s chocolate chips, which you should all have in your home anyway if you call yourself a real chocolate lover.  I sound like I am endorsing Trader Joe’s I probably should I’m their best customer, someone tell them I’m available, quick. 

Anyway, all my ingredients were neatly place behind the mixer, pre measured and all (I’m clean), so I can easily grab what I need when I need it.  I was just about done gradually pouring the flour in (I still don’t know what the point of this is, it flies everywhere no matter what) when I reached over to grab the remainder of the flour and my hair got stuck in the hand mixer.  At first I tried tugging on my hair to get it out but then it started winding more deeply into my hair and slowly entangling more and more of my ponytail; then I realized I should try to turn the mixer off.  The problem was, at this point, I was holding the mixer on the side of my head and couldn’t find the off button, by the time I did I was sporting a hand mixer in my hair without holding it. I am SO fashion forward!  It took me about 15 minutes to get the little mixies (not sure what they are actually called) out of my hair and although my hair probably tastes amazing (yes I haven’t washed it yet) I might be going bald now.  

And there you have it, a cooking adventure with Liz, if only I recorded it like MDK…

Oh, I also made these amazing truffles, click for recipe. 

*Please note, there was no hair in the cookie dough. I made sure to run around the kitchen, you know so the cookie dough could saturate my entire kitchen, while my struggle with mixie was going on, hereby making the biggest mess possible in my NYC sized kitchen.
