Chocolate chip cookies, it is!! I gotta find a good vegan recipe...
I ended up blending various different recipes together to get what I liked, but have you tried the PPK (Post Punk Kitchen) chocolate chip cookies recipe? Or you could try one from Vegweb like this one or this one from Everyday Dish that I found via VeganCrunk.

Why are all of these hoverboards exploding? It seems like this is something that should have been discovered in production, and um, stopped, until the problem is fixed.
I saw that a house caught on fire due to a hoverboard exploding.

It was 35 freaking degrees when I came in this morning. There was, I believe you call it frost, on the ground. I'm wearing socks for heavenssake. SOCKS! I'm not here for this "winter" bullshit.
Also I got maybe 4hrs sleep (not consecutive) and both cafes I pass on my way into work were closed this morning so I'm drinking the INCREDIBLY sub par office coffee to maintain the illusion of wakefulness and working. I am currently the coldest, grumpiest, sleepiest woman at this site, possibly in this city.
God help everyone if I can't get coconut udon soup for lunch.

You are so funny. Yes, that would be frost. I'm sorry old man winter is visiting you, though I do hope you get your coconut udon soup, because that sounds yummy. I think you should throw in a cupcake for good measure, you know, to make sure you get rid of all of the grumpiness!
I'm pretty sure my MIL is entering the early stages of dementia. She got lost in our house and couldn't find the stairs, couldn't remember which clothes were hers, and then when my BIL came for a surprise visit, she didn't recognize her own son And she refuses to come live with us. She keeps insisting that we put her in a nursing home. It's the last thing H wants to do but he's getting so frustrated I'm afraid one day he'll just be like "okay! Fine! If that's what you want!" His siblings are no help at all. Aging sucks
Tonight we are having a full holiday meal with our dearest friends. I'm making turkey with stuffing and gravy, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans and pumpkin pie. For 4 people. Haha. So I really should get off my butt and start cleaning or something!

I am addicted to GeoGuessr again. They updated it so that you can do the whole world, a particular continent, a particular country, or certain particular cities.
I'm about to have a nervous breakdown and I'm not even joking. This time of year is shit, and everything that is happening is shit, and I'm having to balance work shit with the uncertainty of when I'm going to be out for a couple of days and just everything is goddamn shit.

I am a glutton for punishment. Every.single.time I tell myself, don't turn xyz baked good out of the pan yet, or else, it'll break apart. So what did I just do, turn it out too early. I turned the chocolate chip cookie cake upside down. Success. I went to turn it right-side up, the whole time my internal voice is saying Orangeblossom don't do it. The hard-headed side won, and the edge fell off when I flip it again.

I'm about a decade behind, but I just used Oxiclean on my laundry for the first time. I had two raincoats I really like, but were starting to look dingy. I'd washed them before, but it didn't really do anything. Today, I let them soak and used an Oxiclean tablet, and they look so much better.

Fellow unhappy sock wearer here! If I was at home i'd be able to have a few nice warm kitties to snuggle with. I'm house/dog sitting at the beach and it is in the 30's at night. WTF?!?! It is not supposed to be this damn cold on the coast and the tile and hardwood floors in this house are not helping. I've got socks on because the floors are the same temp as ice.
I think I've discovered the next documented case of affluenza - my brother.
Dude is 34 years old, living in my mom's house with his new wife, calls mom a bitch, drinks whiskey in his room and passes out, sends naked pictures to women online, and owns nothing that hasn't been purchased for him by others.
He's bipolar but has been given soooooooooooo many resources and second/third/fourth/fifth chances by my mom, yet there he stays. He'd better be glad I'm not traveling there any time soon.

Was it 500 Days of Summer that said relationships are tested at IKEA? Because I very nearly threatened to divorce MH after a trip there today. That place is utter hell unless you have 4 hours of your own time without someone else's exasperated sighing in your ear. Bitch, I'm about to drop $1000 on furniture! Give me a minute!
The cherry on top was when the taut bungee cord snapped back and hit me in the face. Perfect.
