The
morning started with a rather dull video about allergy education. While its
importance cannot be underrated the most exciting thing about the video was
that I was able to knit while it was going on. Most of the practical
information that I have learned about allergens have come from personal
experience with friends and through class when Chefs let something slip.
In
the afternoon we had a glorious evening full of cookies! I mean, how could a
day be bad when I get to knit then make cookies all afternoon. We had an
assortment of recipes that we made which all taught us varying skills and
exposed us to different recipes. Overall I really enjoyed making (I mean
eating) the biscotti and the chocolate cookies with macadamia nuts.

I am proud of not overeating on
all the delicious cookies.
I need to work on expanding my
repertoire.
Take aways
·
There are so many wonderful kinds of cookies
that I was unaware of. The world is a bigger and brighter place outside of the
(delicious yet overdone) chocolate chip cookie.

You can knead a cookie dough! Who would have
thunk it! You can make ribbons out of the butter with the heel of your hand,
which makes a delightful shortbread like cookie.
