That’s what I call sexy time!
Dinner
Dessert
Growing up, my parents thought it was perfectly normal to make breakfasts of scrambled eggs with canned beans and canned corn so in that tradition, as a grown up, I like to mix it up a bit. Sure steamed sweet buns aren’t the most logical choice for dessert after a long winded French affair but my tummy wants what it wants.
“Stop eating cupcaaaaakes!”
This movie was freaking hilarious. Makes me wanna have someone to be this dysfunctional with.
…and at around 2 am, I stumbled into the kitchen, poking my head into the refrigerator, bathed in its fluorescent light, peering into it as if I could simply will there to be a magnificent 6-course meal. Of course there wasn’t but I happily settled with cookies. Cookies always take priority. I been done told you. 
Now, I do acknowledge that I could be biased, but these were seriously one of the best cookies I’ve had the pleasure of sinking my teeth into. I promise to insert the link when my recipe index decides to play nice. Update: my site has been acting like I forgot its anniversary or something. Maybe if we all compliment it on how pretty she is, she’ll act better. Thank you for bearing with me, y’all! Here’s the recipe (I subbed out all the almonds for 1/4 c of squeezed juice from an orange and the zest of it with melted chocolate for powdered sugar).
They taste like soft, fluffy orangettes, if that makes any sense. Forget that I had forgotten my socks and my feet were cold or that I’d been plagued with crazy dreams lately. As I whisked and stirred, the sense of calm that always spills over my body when I’m in the kitchen took over and made silly dreams only matter when reiterating them for a blog.
Thursday night, I was a ….pirate? attempting to flee but my ship got blown up and I watched my two sons perish. I was grief stricken and swam away, barely concealing myself in a thick tangle of vines. I was mere inches away from my enemies and then, I wake up. Friday night, I was running away from bears and wolves and slept in trees while simultaneously playing my piano then somehow, in a library. Then, I wake up. How does one get a piano in a tree anyways? Of course it doesn’t make a lick of sense. Dr. Freud has some ideas though.
So you see, cookies make sense. Cookies always make sense.
I hope everyone else had fantastic weekends and only dreamed of cotton candy and intense make out sessions with Hugh Jackman. Why can’t I ever have those dreams, huh? I mean seriously, how can a man be this freaking beautiful?! (and I’ll have you know, he counts as part of my food blog, as you can clearly see, he’s delicious!)
*Swooning*
Your Squishy Monster ^.~
I could go for some of those chocolate-orange cookies about now ~.^ They do look dreamy!
I still remember ‘em =)
Can’t resist a pair of sweet buns, but Hugh doesn’t do it for me! He just seems like a nice Aussie bloke to me. Kevin Spacey, Steve Buscemi and Bill Murray on the other hand… swoon. I know, I have strange taste in men.
lol…I like Kevin Spacey too =)
a chocolate orange dipped hugh jackman would be luuusciously deeelicious! i’ll take one, thanks! ^^
I mean, they should box those up and sell it, I’d buy!!!
I fell in love with Hug at the first xmen. I like him best shirtless
More wonderful cookies. Especially so highly commented on.
Oooh, me too! =)
Mmmm orange cookies and Hugh Jackman… Happy 2013!
It’s definitely a winning combo =)
you guys can have hugh, i’ll take ryan gosling! love the cookies xx
Deal!! =)
I agree Hugh is delish!!! Did you ever see his wife though? Yucko!! But hey, I’m not to judge…lol! You will find that someone, someday to be dysfunctional with! I just know it!! I am much more dysfunctional than my hubs…ha ha ha!
It took me 45 minutes to post this comment and that is if it works this time. Every time I load your blog it’s says it contains a virus. I just had to let you know b/c it can’t only be me! I still luvs you though…of course!!
My site is being wacko lately. I do apologize to everyone for the inconvenience am I am definitely working it out. She seeeriously acts like a jilted or scorned woman or something! Soooo erratic and stubborn! Missing your posts, Suzie. Hope you’ve been well…miss your face =)
I agree Hugh is delish!!! Did you ever see his wife though? Yucko!! But hey, I’m not to judge…lol! You will find that someone, someday to be dysfunctional with! I just know it!! I am much more dysfunctional than my hubs…ha ha ha!
I googled it out of curiosity the other day and hm… On the other hand, you guys always sound like you have the best of fun. Makes me happy to hear, Suzie!! =)
your post title is seriously seriously irresistible. chocolate orange dipped hugh jackman?! haha i can’t get the iamge out of my head now.
I find Hugh to be irresistible so it was only fitting =)
Bwahaha! OK I have to tell you I used to be nuts about HJ. Like Crazy nuts. After Swordfish came out, something went wrong with me and I would stay up all night at my parent’s house (I worked for my Dad at the time) and print pictures of Hugh from the internet. I think I still have them somewhere but really hope not. Thankfully, the only person I am hooked on now is my hubby. I’m so over Hugh though I agree, he is major hotness. I think I’ve come to an age where hotness doesn’t matter to me any more. Wow. Weird. Oh and I totally had a make out dream about him once. Jealous?
In other news, I love this cookie. I would rather make out with it in my dreams than Hugh. haha
*shock* I have never seen Swordfish…must watch it now! =) Yes, yes I am VERY jealous. I must be a collector of crazy dreams only :/ In an ideal world, can we have both, V?
Oh surprisingly enough it doesn’t take that much to be dysfunctional
I hope you find some one too. And I love the combo of orange and chocolate!
he shall be squishy and he shall be mine. haha

I want to see that movie! It’ll be a good preview of what my life will be like in 10 years, haha. Love that first quote.. so true!

Of course it was hollywood but it was as real as hollywood could be, I suppose because I literally burst in laughter so often that my popcorn lasted halfway through the movie which NEVER happens, lol
I really want to see This Is 40!! Seems like such a funny movie.
These cookies look like bites of heavens. As does Hugh. Sigh.
ohhh Hugh…yes, Hugh! =)
Happy New Year! I love chocolate orange – a brilliant combo
Hugh Jackman is seriously awesome. Have you seen Les Mis? He’s great in it!
Happy New Year, love! I just saw it and all I could think of was him, haha
Oh goodness! Your Orange Chocolate cookies look so serious! Seriously delicious, it is! Yes, I 200% agree with you, cookies always make sense.

Very tasty food items above Angie. Sounds like you had an interesting week end and last few days. What ever Angie desires is what you should eat!

Hi,
The cookies do look delicious, and so of course does Hugh Jackman he is up there with the cookies, Hmmm on second thought he might be better.
I had a hard time with that one too =)
Not sure if you received my previous comment on this post. Somehow, my connection is going haywire…
I do apologize. My site has been a bit off lately
when I’m 40 I hope there aren’t flying children in my room.
unless I put em there to fly around of course.
those cookies look yummy!
orange flavored cookies are the bestest!
I hope when I’m 40, I still have the ability to fly HAHA
I’ll be waiting for your cookie recipe…Yes, yes, cookies always make sense. But hmmm, what does Freud have to say about your dreams? LOL. You said you dreamt about running away from bears and wolves…Hmmm, I’m no Freud…but Hugh did play Wolverine
{wink, wink}
Hugh Jackman IS delicious. I could eat him allll day and allll night! I’ve even forgiven him for the travesty that is Les Miserables.
Wait…was there any food in this post? I’ve forgotten already…
we’re gonna have a fight on our hands, Tom! =)
