Cookie Hell

For our first week in the kitchen we are making nothing but chocolate chip cookies, pistachio macaroons, and brysslekex cookies. You would think that it all sounds so simple, but it is so hard. We are not allowed to use the mixers so we have to mix everything by hand, and if any of you know what a macaroon is you know that it starts out with a meringue. Ugh! This took some elbow grease to get done. I am now freakishly strong in one are. :) I can say that on Friday my cookies turned out perfect, which is a relief since they were crap at the first of the week. I got a perfect score on all my cookies. I will post a pic of them later.

That is really neat. I can even tell it is a fish. But you had better be much more careful in the future. I don't want you or the chef burning my little girl, ( a blow torch)scary.
