Ice and Cookies

Left work early today because my boss and I were watching a man in the parking lot behind us scrape the ice off his car. My boss came into my office two minutes later and said she was leaving and so was I. Good thing because halfway home it started to really rain and ice was covering the mirrors and causing the windshield wiper on the driver's side to ice over. Even with traffic at a crawl and salt and sand on the road, in a three-mile stretch I saw numerous cars in the ditch and counted three ambulances. A couple of miles from home there was a six car pile-up on an icy ramp. It's not supposed to get any better tomorrow morning and I have an 8:30am conference call so I'll be working from home--yay!
When I got home what did I find at the front door? A slightly frozen box from
gsr_sara_gil. Cookies! Guess what I had for dinner? No, I had tacos but then I had chocolate chip cookies! Once they thawed out. Seriously, they were frozen. But OMG! these are so good! They're bite size and full of chocolate chips and you definitely can't eat just one. Thank you so much!
ETA: I'm taking down the Solidarity with Writers banner on my profile because yes, the strike is over! WGA members have voted to lift the restraining order and writers are back at work tomorrow. Okay CSI writers, now give Brass a brilliant arc for the rest of the season!

I just wanted to send you all cookies.
I made 5 batches so everyone got tons.
