The amount of time I have spent in the past three or four days wishing I had cookies and looking for things that would approximate cookies in my house is ridiculous.* Tonight, I make cookies.

* Cream cheese and nutella on a cracker isn’t very balanced, flavor-wise, but cream cheese and a little tiny bit of nutella straight up is pretty good. Two chocolate chips and a bite of a dried apricot is okay, albeit without the carby/buttery goodness of a cookie. Frozen waffles seem like they would fill in nicely, but they don’t.
