Toffee chocolate chip cookie
After a long day of job searching - calling, sending resumes, etc. I wanted to make a treat for my family. My version of Toffee chocolate chip cookie - fat free (except for Semi sweet chocolate chips and Toffee bits) and Splenda. The cookies have more of a "muffin" type consistency. Tasty yes, but maybe not truly a cookie. Who cares - it takes delicious!

Outfit of the Day
Don't have the courage to actually take pictures of myself quite yet so I will describe my outfit.
Was not so chilly so I wore an Old Navy "Bright Nite" blue V neck cardigan, an American Eagle white tank and Zara jean shorts. Writing it down makes me feel like I might be dressing like a teenager. Need to change that immediately.

The Cooking Channel
My free time is spent:
a) perusing cookbooks
b) watching the Cooking channel
c) checking out fashion that I know I will never be able to afford (If only Chanel would sponsor sites)
So I have discovered a new show called French Food at Home with Laura Calder. Never been a french cuisine type of gal but I have developed a few interesting (yet simple) French inspired recipes after watching. Ironically the soundtrack is what first drew me to watch - a quirky type of song.
Anyway I am currently trying to figure out what to do with my professional life. Inspiration prevails everywhere but I want to make sure I do something original and not even remotely similar to what is out there. After leaving my professional life (which I spent my entire life obtaining) for a ... not thought out idea.

Halloween cooking
A flood of Halloween recipes ran through my head last week. Should I make pumpkin cookies or "bloody" red velvet cake with orange frosting. Could not decide until late Friday. My final decisions: Hotdogs dressed up as "mummies" and eyeball nachos - both were amazing (not just my opinion).
