The world is a crazy place right now, on a global scale, as well as on a personal scale for many, as the country sinks deeper into this unnamed recession-type situation. But darn it if life doesn't just keep on 
going on, despite financial struggles, housing market collapses, and natural disasters of any imaginable kind and magnitude.In this house, for example, last Sunday both of the inhabitants came independantly to the decision that it would be a good day to make cookies. It so happens that the inhabitants have been working on their communication skills over the last couple of years, so they actually alerted each other of their plans and discovered how closely they aligned.
Roundabout wording out of the way, my husband and I both wanted to make cookies on Sunday evening, so we both did. It was a very efficient way to get it done, actually, just have to get the sugar out once, ditto for the flour and the butter. I think those were mostly all the ingredients our recipes shared. The point of this story is that come Monday morning, we had a motherload of cookies around this house, which is slightly unusual. And so naturally, what else would one have for breakfast but cookies (the ones I made did contain a significant amount of oats)? I have no idea.
My dilemma presented itself quickly though: milk or tea? I mean, what sounds better than tea and cookies for breakfast on a chilly, foggy spring morning? Nothing, really, except maybe milk and cookies. The milk happened to be the incredibly tasty kind from the pretty Jersey cow up the road. Well, I stood there in the kitchen debating this situation for a good while before deciding to do the "sensible" thing. I came to the conclusion that I believe any practical person in my situation would have arrived at (probably sooner than I).
I had both.
