If you enjoy that you should go the extra step of dipping them in liquid nitrogen.

I have my technique down, nibbling all the good stuff off of the top of the cookie first. Then I bust it in half and get the rest out of the center. Finally I eat the cookie and lick my fingers.

I can no longer go into Dollar General stores because they sell "coconut caramel cookies indistinguishable from Somoas" for a dollar a box.
Oh no! I just googled all the nearby Dollar Tree stores. (same store)

On my commute to/from work there are 14 Dollar General stores (yes, I counted). The struggle is real.

We have Dollar Tree and Dollarama store here. There are no less than 8 within a 6 block radius of me. There is one of each right beside each other a block away. They all seem to be busy all the time though.
Oh and of course nothing in either is actually a dollar anymore!

Soo, I think there are 6 breweries/taprooms within 5 blocks of my house, and NO dollar stores. I guess that says something. Like we're the second coolest neighborhood in the world, maybe. That's down from a couple years ago, when stretching that to 1mi brought the number up even more and included the only Michelin star rated brew-pub (now closed). But at 1mi there IS a dollar store.

TIL that the porch steps to my deck are still slippery when they are wet -

Yep, I WAS holding onto the handrail ...... just not tight enough.

Yep, slip, bam, thump, thump - lay still for a moment - then start moving parts one at a time, to check for movement. Most things worked, so I crawled up the wet stairs went inside, explained to mrs humfrz why my pants and shirt were all wet - she said she heard that crash, but was afraid to come and look.

Ya, I know they make them ..... and I may get a system - when and if I REALLY need it -
