Somebody PLEASE tell me to bake some cookies!

Since my stomach is finally starting to feel a little better, I really, really want to bake some chocolate cookies. I have a gluten free recipe that is actually very tasty, especially if you keep them in the freezer. Trouble is, they're so good that I know I won't be able to resist eating them. And since I've lost eight pounds with whatever this is (IBS?), I don't want to gain it back. Dale and I have a cruise booked for the western Caribbean next month and I really want to feel good and enjoy it. Oh, by the way, I found out today from my foot doctor that I have a ruptured tendon in my toe and that's why it hurts to walk. He did xrays and gave me a little splint to wear. There goes being able to wear my little heels on the boat. It happened when I did a really dangerous and foolish thing. I took a step. One step in my house and heard/felt a pop. Old age. What can I say. Anyway, it won't take a lot of encouragement from y'all for me to make those cookies tomorrow. But for now it's good night and sweet dreams.

@LadyDuck These have a slight coconut flavor because they have a little coconut flour.

Actually, they're mixed and "resting" in the fridge before I can bake them. I added some chocolate chips and wish I could add pecans. Maybe another time. How are you today?

Oh yes you should make a bunch of cookies. You can always freeze half of them.

@jstory07 They're plain chocolate gluten free cookies made with almond flour and a little coconut flour. I may add some chocolate chips. When I finally get over this stomach thing, I'll add some pecans another time.

You just get out there in that kitchen and whip up a batch of cookies and I hope you have sweet dreams tonight, I don't suppose you can send some cookies to Florida

That's sounds painful. Hopefully your foot will be better before your cruise. I can't have any sweets until after Sept. 6th. That is when I'm through with my Hepatitis C pills.

Now I'm not sure if I should encourage you to make cookies or not!! I'm sorry about your toe. Put a big bandage on it so everyone knows why you can't wear your lovely shoes but have to wear a sneaker or whatever.

Hadn't thought of that! I have a small splint on it. The slight limp will give me away, lol.

@1creekgirl You'll get more sympathy with a big limp.

We had to cancel the last two cruises...one for a hurricane here (couldn't get to Florida) and the second for Covid. Sure hope this one works out.
