did you make all the cookies or was it a 'cookie pot luck' party?

It was a cookie "pot luck" party. Everyone had to bring at least a dozen cookies, though everyone seemed to bring a lot more than that (and there weren't that many who ended up coming...a bunch of last minute cancellations today), and they had to bring the recipe to share. We enjoyed eating some during the party, but then everyone got to trade and take an assortment home with them to enjoy. I still got left with WAY more than my share by the time everyone left, so they're going to appear at the "Block Party" for all of the departments on my floor tomorrow. :biggrin:

The blue full throttle is the best energy drink I have ever had. I have drank it before simply because it tastes so good, not because I was tired.

I go for Pulse personally, tastes great, no way would you fall asleep on it! I felt like I was on speed or something

I've never had an energy drink that has not tasted like crap. I only buy them in an emergency, and the only time its ever been an emergency is when I have found myself falling asleep driving...bad idea.
