I know everyone needs a great camera.

This week alone, my little Canon camera has taken pictures of two tarts, BBQ chicken, brucetta, middle eastern lamb and veal meatballs, baba ganoush, mussels, hummus, my new honey pot, sweet mixed berry fougasse, pita bread and focaccia bread and more! Recipes to come!
If you don't need a camera, you could pick out anything from lighting equipment, camera bags and more! Wow this is so fun... now all you need to do is enter below. So come on and win!
I am dedicating this post to the rocking Courtney from Misadventures in Cooking. She shares her cooking and baking triumphs and tribulations on her blog. I need to share my cooking calamities more since they are not so few and far between lately. My family has certainly had our share of tribulations this week. My dad's surgery on Thursday was crazy, after an hour in surgery he had some blood pressure issues and they stopped surgery. He is fine and feeling good at home. The surgery is rescheduled for the end of May.
So I am so glad to be home. Moving sucks but I love my new place but with everything that has happened in the last 2 weeks, I haven't finished painting or hanging pictures. But it looks great and Sookie and I are feeling very at home. But the last few weeks have been a crazy mixed up calamity of events, starting with these cookies.
These cookies were the first thing baked in my new apartment and oven. They turned out delicious and super awesome despite the fact that I bought the wrong kind of chocolate chips, I got bittersweet 60% dark chocolate baking chips. But after my momentary freak out (it was 11 pm, no way was I running to the store) I decided to change up the recipe. Instead of 1 1/2 cups of semi sweet chocolate chips I added 1 cup of white chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of the bittersweet chocolate chips. They turned out super yummy and the cookies didn't last 3 hours at work. LOL that is why I have no pictures of these freaking delicious cookies, so I used this picture from Martha Stewart. This was the first batch of cookies. Check out part #2 on Thursday. Enjoy!
