Big Fat Cookie



You may have noticed that there really seems to be a lack of knitting on my blog. I seem to have slightly lost focus, but it also because I have been working on a new pattern since the start of 2015. It is taking so much longer than I expected. So until that is done, here is a bit more cookery ....

I thought you might like to see what I came back to find the other day. She hadn't baked it, but my daughter had prepared this enormous cookie. She used this Millie's Cookie recipe, just leaving out the chocolate chips, and came up with the design herself. The letter cutters were from Santa, but he got them from Tiger. I took the photo below to try and show the scale. Despite its huge size the cookie still disappeared incredibly quickly.

  3. What a fun idea, I'm not surprised it didn't last very long. I've been a bit like you with the crochet. I've been doing bits, but nothing to report on. Hopefully we'll be able to rectify this in the not too distant future :)

  17. Big cookies are always so tempting to eat! I'm amazed such a big one could be baked in a regular stove.

    My novel is in the same state as your knitting project. It took me months to find the right approach. Now that I have, well, it still is taking a long time to complete. :-)
