SIGH. It's a "good" thing that I can't taste? =has no taste.
AND that I can't smell? =doesn't smell good.

When I had to go to the store to get my mother oranges (she said she needed fruit and couldn't get any because of her broken arm...funny she was able to drive to church the next day... but I digress...)

I bought some egg whites, and more oatmeal...

So tonight I dusted off the stove and figured I'd make cookies.

Here I sit munching (and considering using a fork?) eating what ended up as oatmeal nuggets or something?

But I should have thought about this!

no brown sugar
fake real sugar
fake butter for shortening
only egg whites not yolks

I didn't have nor do I use brown sugar (allergic to molasses) and I used Splenda for sugar, and non fat butter, and only egg whites (allergic) and yes I did have vanilla .. and baking soda (you know, crack some out of the box that sits in the empty refrigerator)... and baked it 3x as long as they are supposed to take (recipe on oatmeal box)

Oh! that's what gave me the idea: the recipe on the oatmeal box.

Well, I guess being alone on Christmas has it's advantages

sigh.
