Well, that was dumb
Dec. 24th, 2008 03:57 pmI had all sorts of plans for baking this evening and tomorrow. And just before I walked out the door to do shopping, I called Lunds and Rainbow. Both of them close at 4 pm. Duh. If I'd thought to check even half an hour earlier, I would have been able to do a quick shopping trip.
Now I'm stuck with what I have in the house, which means that I can make the treble ginger cookies if the fresh ginger from Thanksgiving is still usable (or make them merely double ginger cookies) and the molasses crinkles without the nonpareils (which I was dubious about in any case).
But the oatmeal cookies and chocolate chews are right out -- no oatmeal or milk, not enough flour or butter, and no chocolate chips. Also, I am out of Diet Coke, which is very sad indeed.
Grrr.
And if I run out of regular flour, am I better off substituting whole wheat flour, bread flour, or self-rising flour for cookies?
