I feel nice. Like sugar and spice.

I'm listening to James Brown. Just finished making and eating a few snickerdoodles with a mug of cinnamon apple tea. They turned out a bit too crunchy (normal for our oven seeing as it's a piece of crap that burns the tops of things and leaves the centers uncooked) but good other than that.

My roommate, Emma, walked in as they were coming out. She tore a ligament in her knee after falling down yesterday and now has it wrapped up and immobilized in a type of half-cast. I made her try one, and after tasting it she said "I didn't realize how much I needed sugar until I had one!" and then proceeded to eat 4 more :) Nacho, a different roommate who's a good cook and therefore a bit judgmental about food. He had one and came back for seconds.

Thank goodness they ate some. I made enough for at least 8 people.

Which brings me to the title of the post. Snickerdoodles (aka sugar and spice and butter) make people feel good. And sharing snickerdoodles while eating them yourself makes you feel even better. I'm feeling great right now.

And to make things better, I came across this gem on youtube:

Enjoy.
