Suffering Through With Chocolate

For godsakes, I had to work with the dreaded worm mush, brown sugar again yesterday. I don't just pack it in the cup, I pound it like I'm killing it because I really wonder if it is in fact alive. Don't think I don't check for real worms every single time I open that bag. Anyhu, my point in this is that I made homemade chocolate chip cookies yesterday and they were probably the best ones I've ever made, so it was nearly worth working with the detestable brown sugar. I ate like 20....but I don't know if that really counts because only like 4 of them were actual cooked cookies. I'll just have to suffer through making and eating baked goods for the next couple months, whatever it takes to maintain this fat layer. What else can be done, surely I'll freeze if I don't, the high for the day was like 6, and it's so typical, I'm just used to it now. Please, any of you out of staters, don't think I'm joking....hand to God....6.
