That I’m making cookies.. because I can! There’s something about living in Japan that makes me miss home made, American-style cookies. The cookies they sell (and make) here are so.. bland? Probably healthier, as they lack much of the sugar, but no one eats cookies for their health. Not like anyone cares, but I think the big difference is the lack of brown sugar being used in their cookie recipes. The taste is just… off.<\/p>\n

I just wanted to post something really quick to.. well.. talk about making cookies. But I’ll be back for some more random stuff after my test, so.. yeah!<\/p>\n

And with that, I leave you with photos of Halloween goodness.<\/p>\n
