Party with Me & Some Gourmet Cookies

May 4, 2011
I went to Ruby Snap (a local cookie parlor) for a tasting party last Thursday & I've not been able to stop thinking about the Billie Ann cookie since. You can't even tell what the cookie is from the picture, but it's the most delicious cookie made with curry, coconut & carrots. It's a very unlikely combination, but absolutely divine. The cookie was topped with a coconut whipped cream frosting that's incredible. I'm sounding like a fanatic; maybe it's my recent low-carb menu talking, but this cookie truly is fantastic. undefined We had a cookie making contest & I won!! I won a gift card for a dozen cookies. I don't want to eat the cookies all by myself, so who wants to come over to my house for a little cookie tasting party Saturday afternoon, May 21st? R.S.V.P. by commenting on this post by Friday & I'll pick six of you at random. I think it'd be so fun to get to know you & munch on delicious cookies! undefined Attending the tasting party was a much-needed break. It was refreshing to hang out with fellow blog ladies, listen to a truly inspiring story about how Tami got started & how she's overcome several bumps in the road with grace & success. I left feeling that much more excited to start pursuing my goals and hopefully I'll maintain the energy to make those goals real. undefined I love that she names her cookies & that Penelope is the name for her peanut butter cookie!! I took the chocolate-dipped cookie home to Penelope & she loved it. So did Chris! It's rare that I ever remember to take my camera to events like these, so I'm just so excited to share this with you.
