9 cookies

that’s all there is.. because I got too pissed off at the dough. After letting it warm on the stovetop with the oven on, I set myself to the task of rolling the dough out and cutting them into circles. No wait, FIRST! I followed the directions, rolled them into balls and then pushed them flat with the bottom of a glass. HA that was a joke. So then I thought, “flour the counter and roll them with the pin, then cut them”.. I had to scrape the cookie off the counter, no joy on that route. I called my mom and was like “when you make these stupid things, how the HELL do you make them into cookies?“*L* So then she starts to tell me how to blanch the almonds, and I’m like “NONO I just need to know how to get them cookieshaped“*L* and she’s like “oh, I just flour the counter, roll the dough with the pin and then cut them with a glass*L* I’m all that shiz don’t work woman*L* Not on my ghetto counter. SO I end up cutting a small square of wax paper, roll the tiny bit of dough out cut the shape with the glass, peel the excess dough away and then flip the cookie off the paper into my hand like a hamburger. SO.. 9 cookies. We don’t need more than that anyways! -huffs-

sometimes

being a domestic kitten makes me twitch and want to cry. today is just not a good day. i hate my washer, my cookie dough is totally screwed up, i forgot we have a bank meeting at noon, i have to now go rush and have a shower, i have a feeling that our landlord is totally dropping the ball in getting us paint and new carpet over the next 5 days because we’ve not heard a word from him..which makes me very irritable because we have to take the chance he IS going to come through and move everything out of the bedrooms so we can paint and then have carpet put in.. but i have this disgusting feeling that it is not going to happen and we’ve moved everything for nothing. i’m going back to michigan in 3 days, and i’ve realized that NEXT WEEKEND i’m having a yard sale there.. and i’m not even close to figuring out what i need to do.. i have no tables. I have to prepare for coming back at the end of July for importing Flame and the rest of my junk. This is seriously turning into one of those days where i just want to hide.
