Bananarama

Welcome new and old Friends of Cookie Friday, it's that time again. Although today was an overall mellow CF (probably because of last week's blow out celebration), today's special was still enjoyed by all. Banana walnut milk chocolate chip cookies, via my friend Martha, made for a sweet end to another week at the office. I'm staring at the last cookie right now if anyone wants it!

Ah, Guittard milk chocolate chips—my own personal kryptonite.


Freelancing newcomers Billy and Tiffany are wondering what they got themselves into. Warren and Janelle already know the deal.


If she's down with cookies, she's down with me.


Jeffy wouldn't eat the cookie, but he did pose with it. He's a sport like that.


In Big T's words: "Everything to excess." I like her style.


*Make sure to stop by next week for a one-of-a-kind Charity Cookie Friday to raise money for National Breast Cancer Awareness month. Have a sweet weekend, everyone!

Mint Mania!

Today is a Monster Cookie Friday in celebration of Jen T. and Wes' birthday week! We answered the bday request for minty-chocolatey/anything chocolate with THREE different, mint-themed treats, including: homemade chocolate covered mint oreos, almost vegan mint chocolate chip cookies and super fudgey mint cookies and cream brownies.


And now for some the PacBasin CF fanatics. Below, a few of the girls of Ala Mo (also known as Charlie's Cookie Angels) get in on the action:

Shara and Melanie don't mind if they do; takin' a seat on the ottoman for a casual cookie snack.

Major HB representation at this week's CF. Mayjah.

Patrick is only slightly enthusiastic about cookies.

Finally, after many weeks, we capture Scott swooping in on the cookies. Success!

Bobby agreed to a photo, too, with a post-pic cookie guarantee.

Even with cookie in hand, Ilan is all business.

Chuck "circulating" through the HHR edit cube.

Hey, even El Presidente enjoys a good cookie!


Thanks everyone for another awesome CF. And double thanks to Melissa for the newsletter shoutout. We're looking for fresh cookie-loving faces all the time! See you soon...

The Cookie Chronicles

Sorry for the late post, cookie lovers. Sometimes we have things to do during the day, like work. Luckily, our Delographer was able to sneak in a few photos (and lend us his dental impressions).

I give you Delo's Cookie Chronicles, in two acts.

Act one.


Act two.

September's Hawaii Home + Remodeling out now!

In other news, the coconut white chocolate chip cookies (thanks for the coconut, Jason) were enjoyed by several others, including blog newcomer and hip-hop dancing all star, Jenny A.



And birthday boy, Wesley (as seen here with two of his true loves, cookies and Diet Coke).

Happy 21st, Wes!


See you in a few days for an extra special Cookie Friday!

Substitute Baking

Thanks to my sous chef/sister, Julie, for saving the cookie day this week and baking up some tasty snickerdoodles right in the nick of time.


We hope Cookie Friday is your light at the end of a deadline-filled tunnel.


This week we have lots of new cookie loving faces to share, including Miss Kristin (above).


Today is Mae's lucky day. The snickerdoodle is her number one favorite cookie! Jersey represent.



My favorite POMMY, David, will have his biscuit straight away! As long as it doesn't have peanut butter in it. Mate.



Splendid!



Traci's back. We think she's picking up Nelson's slack.



Hello, Ashley. Welcome to weekly cookie madness!



Have a delicious weekend. I'll be back to baking next Friday:)

Just for fun.

Thanks, Jason.



The cookie. MMMMM. The cookie.
