Why I Love My Roomies

On Monday night my roommates mom came to town but right before then she made us cookie dough from scratch (which I was so thrilled about!). All week I've been running to the fridge feeling like such a rebel eating this cookie dough since she decided not to make cookies (because everyone knows about the annoying back labels that say "do not consume raw cookie dough for your own safety blah blah blah") and then I figured why not make cookies and eat cookie dough too (the best of both worlds!). At that moment I experienced a first world problem: how do you bake cookies with no cookie pouch that has directions? I googled the answer and was told that 375 for 10 minutes was the perfect method and then to my surprise the cookies came out raw in the middles and burnt on the edges. We had a pretty good laugh over my lack of knowledge of baking without directions and I learned that sugar burns at 350 so you have to bake cookies a little lower than that. The next day I totally redeemed myself by making pizza (on dough that I made from scratch just saying) and it was quite tasty!




















A couple weeks ago my roommates and I sat outside for about an hour trying to see the special moon but it was too cloudy to see anything.  We were pretty bummed to have no cool pics for our family and friends and I saw this text online so I sent it to our group text (the boy takes a picture of a tortilla on the counter and pretends it was the moon). Just a little humor to get us through the day :)

Also this morning I woke up to 5 texts from my roommate so I walked over to her room to see what the fuss was about.  She'd gotten a message from her friend saying "I will be in the library all day, feel free to tag along". She was all panicked and she's like "I keep trying to translate this and it doesn't make sense, what is she trying to tell me about tag along?!" I absolutely adore my roommates and I couldn't have gotten matched with better girls this semester, I just hate that they're leaving me in December!
