My friend Peter had a birthday when I was in Africa. While I managed to bake for AJ and Gregg’s summer birthdays — the other two in the Bagel Boy Trifecta — I completely forgot Peter. Ouch. Thankfully I made it up to him this morning with a tray of snickerdoodles, per his request.
I used this recipe and they were a hit. Honestly, I think Peter was almost more thankful for the peanut butter brownies I baked as a distraction for AJ. With chocolate on the table, Peter didn’t have to worry about sharing his cookies.
* Breakfast of champions — unless you are in China, and then your Olympic glory also comes with a side of smog. Yikes.

I want to reach in that picture and grab one of those peanut butter brownies - holy moly, they look good! (My breakfast was scrambled eggs with leftover pesto. The idea was a little better than the execution.)
July 31st, 2008 at 8:54 amI love snickerdoodles! One of my fave cookies. Mmmmm. You’re so sweet–no pun intended! My breakfast was a Jamba Juice. (I can make them at home, so why do I stop on my way to work and pay them? Who knows!)
July 31st, 2008 at 9:00 amLOVE snickerdoodles!
July 31st, 2008 at 9:27 amI love that top picture where you can see the steam coming out of the coffee cup. This post makes me think maybe I should look around for a bagel place to stop at on my way to work.
Those snickerdoodles look yummy! I printed out the recipe.
Holy smoke, or rather, smog! They should have thought about the pollution when choosing Beijing as a location.

July 31st, 2008 at 5:32 pmThe world is sending their best athletes to perform in that smog. It makes no sense.
I haven’t made snickerdoodles in years.
July 31st, 2008 at 5:44 pmI just tried to take a bite out of my monitor.
July 31st, 2008 at 7:04 pmI made snickerdoodles on Sunday (same recipe) and listened to the same story on NPR. We’re twins for a week. How disgusting did the air sound?
