Sometimes my favorite thing about working from home’ is that I have lots of time for baking experiments in the kitchen. If you have a normal 9 to 5 job, your probably think I’m lucky to work from home. Let me tell you, it’s not all it cracks up to be. I have to make my own work scheduled, I have to take responsibility for every task, and make my own deadlines, I hardly ever make them…… But as I mentioned before, it comes with some benefits. 
Last week was crazy, and yet I found the time, or should I say, I stole some time off and got into the kitchen to bake some cookies. I try not to do that to often, get into the kitchen in the middle of a working day, but sometimes, just sometimes it helps to get my head back together. I find that baking clears me mind, and makes me so much calmer, that I never consider those work brakes as a waste of time.
After less than 45 minutes, I had monster chocolate chip cookies on my table. This are so good, they are crunchy on the outside, and moist on the inside. They make the house smell like heaven, and your stomach sing with joy. You should defiantly try making them at least once!
