10.26.2014



My car broke down yesterday so today I woke up early to call the insurance agency to have it towed to the nearest shop. In the shop I was told that I could have it fixed in a jiffy if I buy a new alternator which costs 200+ BND. The nice person that I am, I agreed to this (also to save me the troubling "car engine" talk). The rub is, an hour later they told me that they can't have it done today because the shop opens till 11 am (knowing it's a SUNDAY) so I have to come back for it at 10 am tomorrow. I have no choice but to cancel the classes which I mapped out for today, hurrah). Since I am too sick (with a mean flu), broke and miserable to be anywhere at all, I decided to jazz up in the kitchen and make use of the "alone" time I have. I rummaged for some ingredients (which I have, luckily, except for a few drips of this and a meager amount of that) and though I lacked the appropriate devices to cook the recipe to perfection (haha) I went on with the plan, kicked my (sick) heels up and decided to cook "by instinct". The baked cookies weren't that bad at all! For someone who sucked in the kitchen, the cookies were marked as a real triumph! I have pictures of course!
