Those cookies look amazing. And those bats freak me out every time we go to the zoo. They are amazingly huge, but I get the willies around them! :)
Colleen- have you ever seen the bats at night? They are even freakier b/c they are awake, but none of my nighttime pics are very clear. Thos cookies are to DIE for. Every time we go to NYC, I HAVE to get one, and I can eat an entire 700+ calorie cookie, no problem. When I make them, I have to give a substantial amount away, too dangerous to have around! The ladies that own the bakery are triathletes, which makes them extra cool to me!
If you're 5'2" I'm 6 feet tall. :)
he he, I rounded up from 5'1.5"! I was once measure at OSU (with running shoes on) at 5'4" for them to put in the media guide. Meredith, you are not 10.5 inches taller than me!
