tollhouse "bars"
the first step in baking is organization and preparedness. i'm getting that DOWN.
kitchen, ingredients, everything: ready.
this week's recipe, as hinted in the genius graphic that week, was tollhouse cookie bars...
note my little scribble at the top: to "buy ice cream...just in case..."
and when saying "just in case" i was thinking of the last time we tried to make bars...that being, the infamous march 11th white chocolate fudge bars.
as we learned that night--vanilla ice cream is always an excellent back-up plan in this business.
dough happily baking...
as i hover over it praying for at least an inkling of success this time around...
RESULT:
basically, somewhere in between tollhouse bars, and a gooey mess. i hate our oven. they were starting to burn so i had to take them out!! and i had lowered the temperature and everything! oh well.
in spite of a 50% victory, it was a delicious cookie-crumbly-gooey feast.
good thing we had that ice cream. :)
in the midst of everything...
evan read books...amy tried to tickle me...
we browsed the latest issue of Under the Radar (the magazine laura writes for)
chad poured us beer...
cassandra showed us her amazing homemade 3D photography.
because she's just rad like that...
and then laura and ian had their own private dance party.
i call it a victory. half-baked bars or no.
