Wow! And I have a big bag of them and was thinking to make
rolls of chocolate chip cookie dough for the freezer. Good timing.

Last weekend I bought a 4-1/2 lb bag at BJs, so I'm set
Unfortunately it's been too humid to make cookies.

I have a big bag of them, but I was thinking of just sitting here and eating
them by the handful.

Heh, that sounds like a plan, plus you avoid all that annoying
flour/butter/sugar mess! Imagine the calories you save, too.

I used to take a handful of Chips Ahoy cookies and crush them up into a
glass, add milk and eat it with a spoon! Quite delicious!

Haha, I bought that once, along with a bag of walnuts, but that's back
when I was desperate for that marshmallow fluff fudge. Took me a
while but I managed to go through both. Won't be buying that many
chips again.

Sounds like a breakfast to me.

I'd say home made chocolate chip ice cream is the way to go.

That remionds me of the scolding I recieved recently.
This past weekend My Daughter moved. She caught on to my trickery when
she packed the excessive amounts of baking stuff I'd 'left' at her house
(4 bags of walnuts, 6 bags of chocolate chips, 3 bags of pecans and
various bags of other goodies like baking chocolate) over the years of
doing the xmas baking at her house, cause it was bigger. That wasn't
counting the stuff she threw out because it was too old. I guess I hid
the stuff too well.

I did this because she always complained of the price of stuff we used
when we did the baking.

Oh sure, *now* you tell me! I just made these (amazingly good) cookies yesterday that
took 3 whole cups of chocolate chips! 2 were melted for the dough, the other cup was
stirred in. Coupled with the coffee, they made a mighty fine cookie. Oh well, guess
I'll be forced to repeat the experience on the 4th....

Felice,

It warms my heart that you and others have taken the baton and run with
"lunch and dinner" breakfasts, as I sit here having a morning bowl of
grapes.

You may have mine

Since I will be out of town on the 4th, I should make chocolate chip
cookies today. No sense in waiting. <g>

Saturday was Chocolate Day so I made Barb's brownies. Sunday night,
dessert was a brownie, topped with two scoops of vanilla ice cream,
Hershey's chocolate syrup drizzled on top, whipped cream, pecans and a
cherry. Yes, it was fantastic.

Grapes are nice, but they are not as good as Ghirardelli chocolate
chips. Sam's Club used to sell them and I bought a huge bag (8 lbs?). I
cooked with half of them and I ate the other half. If I was home on the
4th, I would make chocolate chip pancakes. They would be buttered,
sprinkled with powdered sugar, rolled up and eaten. Hey, I may do that
before I leave town.

You're taking me back to my IHOP chocolate pancake youth! Don't forget the
whipped cream?

I'll probably just nibble on a piece of 85% cocoa dark chocolate.

They still have them! And they are still good with a big glass of milk.
Those were my favorite.

Hey that's right, I could dip my chocolate chip pancakes in whipped
cream. Yum.

As a little kid, I remember I'd always order one and after finishing, vowed
never to order one again but always did. The early onset of Alzheimers?
