Did everyone have a good weekend? I've eaten so many goodies that just the thought of sugar cookies makes me feel a little ill.
Speaking of sugar cookies, I was at a friends Christmas party, and everyone was opening their gifts all at once. I was working through mine methodically, based on shape and size.
I opened a tin, and it was full of all kinds of homemade cookies. I tried one. Hmmm, delicious. The next present was a plastic Christmas pail. I popped the lid and pulled out a bag full of little sugar cookies in the shape of moons.
"Cool!" I thought. I immediately opened the bag and popped one into my mouth. The first thing I noticed was that the cookies were dusted in flour, not powdered sugar. It also had a weird texture and taste.
"Eww" I thought, putting the lid back on. "I'll just take those home and toss 'em."
Just then I heard someone call out "The stuff in the pail is homemade pasta. Not sugar cookies! So you probably don't want to eat them right now."
"Good thing you warned us" a guy called out, "I was just about to eat some."
I just nodded vigourously. "Phew, warned just in time."
Today's video is from Band of Brothers, an HBO mini-series that's equal parts awe and heartbreak. Amazing stuff.
