Vanished!!!

I made four yes FOUR dozen chocolate chip cookies and this is what I have left!

We had a real estate open house today. When I saw La Vida Dulce's
Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe I thought that could be the cookie that sells this place.

this is the plate I found when we returned home, holy cow all had vanished, three little cookies remained.

Have yet to hear from our realtor.


Next open house if required, will the the famous "scutterbotch" cookies...stay tuna'd

HAH! What I wouldn't have given to watch the cookies disappear - everyone eyeing them off as they disappeared...down to the last three and nobody wants to look the hog so they wander tentatively near the platter...wander away and look lustfully back...unable to overcome their inhibitions they let out a sigh and walk away.

Of course, that's just me and my overactive imagination turning it into The Cookie Saga ;)

Perhaps the cookay monster came by?

Well they say the smell of baked cookies or cakes in the house makes it seem more cozy and inviting. This is a great way to add to the enticement to buy your home. I'll bet somewhere there's a study which shows the smell of vanilla in a home contributes to decisions to buy.

You need to be a writer, I smell a novella in there somewhere.

Hey! I'm glad they liked the cookies. Now have you tried the "Saint Joseph Kit" for selling real estate?

ellie sounds to me this could be a funky reality TV show!

Jeff sure cookay monster did it ;)

Sylvie I have been known to put a pot of water on the stove and add lemon rinds or cinnamon. Just to fill the house with a pleasant aroma.

Vida, there is a story behind the St Joseph kit too see my post.
