My Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie It was Sunday night and I was searching for a cookie recipe on allrecipes and saw that almost 3,000 people loved these so I had to make them. I have been on a cookie kick lately much to my husband’s demise who is trying to lean up. He has amazing self control but he even succumbed to these. They kind of remind me of Paradise Bakery cookies except for they are BIG. The secret is the melted butter which gives them that chewy texture. My Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled 1 cup packed brown sugar 1/2 cup white sugar 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 egg 1 egg yolk 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips Instructions Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Words Invented by Shakespeare by joel laumans Today while browsing the ever so beautiful interwebs, I came across something interesting about Shakespeare. Turns out that our second favourite William (after the one and only William Gates of course) invented over 1700 of the words we use commonly use, by simply turning nouns into verbs, adjectives into verbs, and so forth.. Here is a very small list of words he invented: Accused Addiction Advertising Amazement Arouse Assassination Bandit Bedroom Beached Blanket Bump Cater Champion Countless Epileptic Fixture Flawed Generous Hint Lonely Mimic Negotiate Obscene Premeditated Rant Summit Torture Varied Worthless Zany Well the list goes on, and you can read more about it here , or phrases he invented here . It is disappointing that we are taught that there is a word for everything, because it hampers our imagination to develop, to feel, to express, anything which has not been defined before. I hope we all can take an example from Shakespeare, and dare to break the structured guidelines.
