Cookie City

[livingdeb]

Yesterday I went to an end-of-summer party. I got to play pool volleyball (fun!) and pool jousting (less fun) and talk to friends and dance on the deck and eat lots of cookies. The hostess herself had made at least four kinds (chocolate chip, sugar, chocolate chocolate chip, white chocolate chip(?), and maybe another one). I brought peanut butter cookies and someone else brought oatmeal cookies and chocolate chip cookies. I love cookies.

I met some new people (mostly engineers and dancers) and also saw a person I probably hadn't seen in two decades.

There was plenty of bughouse (a team chess game) but almost no bugs (or mosquitos, anyway).

I learned that chemotherapy can turn your hair curly. And that aging makes it much more likely that you will get insomnia. And that one of my friends has a job duty called "airport duty," picking up people in bands, and another has one that could be called "play that funky music, white boy" except that she's not a boy.

Just heard of a new place near the university which might be of interest to you: www.austincookielounge.com You can create your own custom cookies with six base flavors and an array of add-ins. They bake them fresh for you. If I go, I'll have them cook mine extra-long so it'll be nice and crispy!

I've heard of this place. It sounds like a new competitor to Tiffany's Treats, which is also near campus and delivers. Turns out lots of folks on campus can think of reasons why they'd like to have still-warm cookies delivered to campus. I wonder if this competition will bring the price down.

Tiffany's Treats just has several non-custom flavors, so the new place is probably not trying to compete based on price.
