Cookies

Have you ever seen the movie Stranger Than Fiction? Probably one of the best movies I saw during high school that I didn't appreciate. It's got comedy, romance, literature! And cookies. Will Ferrell is an IRS agent auditing Maggie Gyllenhaal for refusing to pay 22% of her taxes because while she's in favor of repairing pot holes, she doesn't want to pay for national defense, corporate bail outs, and campaign funding. She's a baker. After a day of auditing her in which he tries to make nice, she offers him some cookies. He doesn't like cookies. But didn't his mother ever bake him some after a hard day? His mother didn't bake. He only got store bought. So now, an adult and slightly in love, he's being offered cookies because he just had a hard day--Maggie made sure of it. And they're delicious.

I'd like some homemade cookies. But I have no oven. Yet.
