I appreciate intelligence and knowledge; I think it's sexy. I enjoy dancing, reading anything with words on it, and going for walks outside with friends. I wear glasses because I can't see, but I like to think of them as a fashion statement.
I'm looking for someone to share my time with. It would be nice if you'd accompany me to museums or planetariums and not make fun of my 90's music/eminem cd/current alternative radio in the car on the way there. I do however reserve the right to veto country music in advance! I will teach you the joys of movie roulette if you're interested. Then you can teach me about your interests too!

Poly people find themselves with a very large struggle.. There is no lack of love or want that keeps them out of certain relationships. But that doesn't mean that they should stay in these relationships, either. A lot of genuinely loving relationships can end up being disruptive to the people within those partnerships when those other resources are lacking. And let's not get into how disruptive they can be for the people around them. That is when the logic wins over love.
This is the hardest part of being polyamorous; knowing that the love doesn't go away when the relationship does. The cruel hope; optimism leaves you wishing on your favorite star for the missing resources to show up.
Luckily, one of those resources is patience.
"Five years ago, Chris Batty, until this week Gawker's vice president of sales and marketing, was looking to fill un-purchased ad space on the site. He wanted to forgo the "horrendous creative" of ad networks that litter sites with penny stocks and would keep his sales teams pushing buttons instead of building relationships. Batty sought something prettier, more intimate, more unique for the company's growing real estate. She didn't act on Batty's inspiration, but he did — bringing images of artists' work to stand alongside Gawker's blog posts.
"The result was a workaround that gave Gawker full control over its pages' aesthetics. Born as a stopgap to complement blog posts, Gawker Artists is now taking on an unexpected life of its own — it became a standalone site in 2006 — in large part by thinking of art not merely as a pretty placeholder for text but as something that could survive on its own."

"Unsettling as the punditization of the news may be to old-school journalists, there is a powerful cultural reason why Fox, Jon Stewart and other news-with-a-view productions have caught on: Consumers are so overloaded with information that they want someone to tell them what it means.
No fewer than 92% of Americans today "use multiple platforms to get their daily news," according to a survey conducted earlier this year by the Pew Research Center. However, 70% of respondents felt the volume of news was overwhelming and 50% said they looked to others to help them divine its significance."

Graceful degradationProviding an alternative version of your functionality or making the user aware of shortcomings of a product as a safety measure to ensure that the product is usable.Progressive enhancementStarting with a baseline of usable functionality, then increasing the richness of the user experience step by step by testing for support for enhancements before applying them.

SMS-based crowdsourcing of local civic ideas: ""It's about people in a specific neighborhood saying let's put in a garden here," Barton continues. "I'd say it's a more nuanced approach to crowd-sourcing, less the winner-takes-all model but rather getting a group to rally around something specific. The entire process is designed for maximum participation to some kind of constructive end. The basic idea was to reinvent public participation for the 21st century."
Transparency 1 vs. Transparency 2 – Adina Levin's weblog. For conversation about books I've been reading, social software, and other stuff too."In David Simon's world, a few brave reporters had the special knowledge and connections to get enforcement of open data and open records. In our world, the government policy needs to make data available as a matter of course, and crowdsourcing tools and communities need to give more people the knowledge and the courage that David Simon had to demand accurate information from the cops.
The world is different. Open data and crowdsourcing give more people the raw information and open government literacy that David Simon had. But we need the organizational structures, funding, and motivation to use them. There's no guarantee how well the new way will work, but there are tremendous opportunities, and it's up to us to make them work."

According to Landry, the newly acquired land expands the Schenectady County Woodlawn Preserve. Besides the benefits of expanding the preserve, Niskayuna residents will now be able to enter the preserve from Niskayuna.
Besides the new playground equipment, the town is also going to try to get grant funding to put new trails in.
"The county has a lot of property that sits there. [When] you turn it over to the town, they have a much more vested interest so we're going to spend $20,000 to $30,000 to build a neighborhood park," said Landry.
The money will come from the Parkland Fund, which is funded by a fee builders must pay when they build or extend subdivisions in the Town of Niskayuna.
"It just opens up a lot of opportunity for the town, and you're creating open space and parkland that will never be lost. It's forever parkland preserve," said Landry.

2001 Saturn L300 • 75,000 miles
I have a leak coming into my passenger side floorboard, and I don't know what it is. My antifreeze is also lowering faster than usual. Thecolor of the liquid is green, and I would just liketo know what is going on with it.

Are you saying the coolant level is going down in the reservoir? If so, it sounds like the heater core is leaking. If the car came with air conditioning, the coolant should be dripping into the condensate drain pan and onto the ground just inside the right front wheel. That drain tube can become plugged, then once the pan fills up, it will overflow onto the right front floor.
Feb 21, 2012.
Feb 21, 2012.
Just to add to this one if its clear water leaking into the car then you have a clogged a/c drain hole. To clean it is best to unbolt the drain and clean it that way. But beware a lot of water will leak out. Its also pretty common for the heater cores to leak coolant into the cars. But what I have mostly seen actually leaking is the orings that seal the inlet pipes going into the heater cores. If you pull the passenger side center console extension panel loose you will be able to see what iam talking about.

Faced with the daunting notion of a 5:15 a.m. wake-up call Saturday in advance of an all-day flight to paradise, the last thing the Maryland basketball team needed Friday night was a rude wake-up call from an inferior New Hampshire squad.
Have no fear. The 25th-ranked Terrapins were never in danger of sleepwalking through this final early season tuneup in advance of the far more challenging Maui Invitational that awaits next week.
With an 82-55 thumping of the Wildcats at Comcast Center, Maryland put together its best all-around performance in three games to date this season, all of them lopsided victories over less accomplished foes.
So what if star guard Greivis Vasquez has yet to crack double digits and has been a decided nonfactor during the Terps' 3-0 start? And so what if they're still woefully thin on the bench with Steve Goins and Jin Soo Choi battling injuries and Dino Gregory suspended until mid-December? Seniors Landon Milbourne and Eric Hayes, along with sophomore Sean Mosley, have more than made up for Vasquez's sluggish start and the lack of depth.
"We're a work in progress," coach Gary Williams said. "We're getting to be a good basketball team. And as people get healthy, I think we have a chance to be good. But there's still a lot of work to be done."
Milbourne was particularly dominant on the court Friday night, pumping in a career-high 24 points and scoring his team's first four points during a 9-0 run that put the Terps in control right from the start. The 6-foot-7 forward now finds himself the leading scorer on Williams' roster, averaging 16.7 points a game.
Not to be outdone, Hayes (15 points, 3-for-4 from 3-point range) and Mosley (13 points, 10 assists) chimed in, contributing to an efficient Maryland offense that shot 56.7 percent.
"We have a lot of talent," Mosley said. "Offense and defense are looking pretty good. The first couple games we came out kind of slow. Today we came out the first half aggressive and hit shots."
Thus the Terps completed a three-game sweep of their season-opening homestand, having dispatched of Charleston Southern, Fairfield and New Hampshire by an average of 31 points.
Whether this is a sign of big things to come remains to be seen. Williams certainly should have a better feel for his team's long-term chances once he returns from Hawaii on Thanksgiving evening. Following Monday's opening game against host Chaminade, Maryland will face either Cincinnati or Vanderbilt. The Maui field also includes Gonzaga, Arizona, Wisconsin and Colorado.
"We're going to have three tough games," Hayes said. "We just want to keep playing the way we have been on the defensive end and keep improving in our offensive execution."
If the Terps can manage to storm out of the gates the way they did Friday, they'll be in fine shape. Against New Hampshire, they scored the game's first nine points while forcing five turnovers. Milbourne was in the middle of it all, accounting for six of his team's first 13 points, including a steal-dunk combo that got the crowd roaring.
Maryland's offense was productive despite another unspectacular showing from Vasquez. The senior guard and focal point of the roster attempted just three first-half shots and finished with only eight points and two assists on 4-of-8 shooting.
"The one thing about Greivis, he's a great competitor," Williams said. "He's passing up a couple things that are pretty good looks that he should be taking. But he'll see that on tape."
Not that the Terps needed much from Vasquez on Friday. Taking advantage of sloppy play from the Wildcats - who at one juncture had 16 points and 13 turnovers - Maryland seized control, carried a 40-22 lead into halftime, and never let up.
Truth be told, the tougher challenge might have been an abbreviated night of rest, followed by that super-early wake-up call.
"Hopefully, I can get some sleep on the plane tomorrow," freshman Jordan Williams said.
But the quick turnaround is worth it in exchange for four days in Maui, right?
"Oh yeah," he said. "We have no complaints at all."

AFA Reveals God's Warning to Home Depot
For nearly two years now, the American Family Association has been leading a boycott against Home Depot because the company has "given its financial and corporate support to open displays of homosexual activism on main streets in America's towns."
As part of this campaign, representatives from the AFA attend Home Depot board meetings in order to demand that the company "remain neutral in the culture war" if it wants the AFA to call off the boycott. So far, the AFA has not had much luck, but representatives continue to attend these meetings, as Randy Sharp, AFA's Director of Special projects, did last week.
Sharp reported that he had an opportunity to speak briefly with Home Depot Chairman Frank Blake and demand that he agree to meet face-to-face with representatives of the right-wing group for an hour so that the AFA can make its case, but that he received no such commitment.
Sharp went on to reveal that he was not alone in attacking Home Depot for its support for equality at the board meeting, as a Bishop Robert Smith of Little Rock, Arkansas was also present and delivered a message claiming that Home Depot had become "Home Despot" and warning that if it continued on this path, God would no longer bless the company or its shareholders.
Both Bryan Fischer and Sharp agreed that this was a prophetic word for Home Depot that "came directly from God":
UPDATE: The AFA has now posted audio of the remarks delivered by both Sharp and Smith at the board meeting, where Smith stated that God told him that "Home Depot was raised up to be an eagle with wings to bear up Israel in the time of trouble":

Facebook to leave downtown Palo Alto
Original post made by Evan, Crescent Park, on Jun 24, 2008
Web Link
What will be the effects of the move? Decreasing rents, thanks to the lack of employer-subsidized renters in downtown? A much older crowd populating downtown PA on weekends?

Facebook rented the same office space where GOOGLE started. Seems these companies start in Palo Alto but then move on to bigger and better spaces in Mountain View, Sunnyvale, and Santa Clara. Can't say I blame them, office space is cheaper down there.

Bye, bye...this improves our jobs housing imbalance. It won't result in rent decreases, because this is a destination city. What's really needed is serious rent control legislation. Will that happen? Probably not.
Also, Facebook and the other social networking companies (MySpace, Twitter, etc) has got to be the most seriously overvalued bunch of companies since AOL. Facebook?? Get serious. Who cares?

I wonder how much revenue Facebook generates for our City. Google is a cash source for Mt. View. Any profitable business is worth keeping, but I doubt our City business department has made much effort to keep Facebook. A few years ago there were many empty buildings in downtown. We cannot afford this again.
The many employees who eat at the local restaurants will be missed - another lost revenue source.

exactly. rxpose for the highlights and correct the shadows with contrast.
exactly. rxpose for the highlights and correct the shadows with contrast.
Here are my suggestions and reasoning behind each. This is what I would do in my own darkroom. Because of the way it was worded, I'm assuming OP's prints are reasonably close, not way off, from being good. Once I get my prints reasonably close to right and start perfecting it, more formalized process doesn't work for me.
Constant exposure to me means the highlights are held constant as the filter is changed and the shadows become progressively darker. This is important because in printing we expose for the highlights and change contrast for the shadows.
I find my highlight exposure by using a highlight test strip printer found in Ralph's book Way Beyond Monochrome. It produces a series of test strips of the same area of important highlight. Once the exposure is found for the highlight the contrast (filter) is changed to get the shadows where they need to be. Each time contrast is changed a new test strip is made as exposure usually does need changed unless it's a very small change. This is the method for single contrast printing.
I've moved more toward split grade printing as mentioned by Matt. This is a much easier way to get to a finished exposure time and dodging and burning is much more effective this way as local contrast can be changed by burning and dodging during only one or both filter exposures.
Sorry to reopen an old thread, but it seems to fit here.
I'm working towards making my process a lot more systematic to save on flailiing around with exposure and grade. I want to build up a table of exposure time multiplication factors against colour head filtration settings so I can move between grades easily without having to test strip at each grade. I've been trying to keep midtones constant but i'm finding it just too hard to be consistent.
Most people seem to set the exposure for highlights first, and then modify shadow with contrast grade so figure I would do this too. But just for the sake of better understanding, why would you for instance not set your shadow exposure first, and modify highlights with contrast grade instead? These two approaches would give me different numbers would they not? Would both approaches work?
Or am I missing something?
You are missing something, but it isn't hard to miss.
To be totally accurate, it would be necessary for you to have multiple versions of such a chart - one for each tone that needs matching.
The reason for this is that each different scene has something of its own that serves as the most important tone - some scenes have shadows that are most important, some scenes have mid-tones that are most important, and some scenes have highlights that are most important, and no two scenes will have exactly the same tone that are most important.
I would guess that a majority of printers tend to be most comfortable with using exposure to set the mid and highlight tones, and then using contrast to set the shadow tones. It seems to me that most of the VC papers I have been used have been designed that way. You, however, may not approach printing that way, or alternatively may tend to shoot photographs that aren't suited to that approach. If so, most likely you will need a chart or charts that suit your approach and photography.
In my case, I use the charts to adjust the centre points of my tests, but otherwise rely on new tests.

SKF Plans to Grow Renewables Business Faster Than Wind Industry
SKF AB, the world's largest maker of ball-bearings, said growth in its renewable energy business will outpace the wind industry in the next few years.
Renewables, mainly wind, generated about 3 billion kronor ($440 million) for Sweden-based SKF in 2010. That represented 5 percent of revenue, up from 1 percent in 2005, said Stefan Karlsson, head of strategic development at SKF's renewable energy unit. The company expects the wind industry to grow 10 percent to 15 percent a year.
"The target is that this will be a bigger portion of our business," Karlsson said in an interview at the European wind Energy Association conference in Copenhagen. "We have been growing our renewable business somewhat quicker than the wind industry, and our aim is to carry on outgrowing the industry. It's a market in strong development."
SKF's clients include at least 13 of the 15 biggest wind turbine-makers, according to Karlsson. He declined to name them. SKF's products, which include bearings, seals and turbine-monitoring systems, make up 2 percent to 5 percent of the total cost of a turbine, he said.
With turbines selling for an average of $910,000 per megawatt of capacity, and the total turbine market forecast by the Global Wind Energy Council to rise to 46 gigawatts this year, turbine sales would total $37 billion. That means SKF is vying for a share of a market that's worth as much as 5 percent of that, or $1.9 billion.
"The part of the value of the turbine that we provide is exceptionally high," Karlsson said. "Offshore is the next generation of challenges. The seals and all parts have to be more robust because if something goes wrong and there's bad weather, it can take you a week to access the turbine. With onshore turbines you can just send a repairman in car."
SKF also makes tracking systems for solar panels that swivel to follow the sun through the sky during the day, and bearings and seals for wave and tidal power devices.

"Diamonds are easier to trace than wine," says Jason Hernandez, a former U.S. attorney who prosecuted one of the largest wine counterfeiting cases in 2013. "Even if you're looking at something like a 1982 Château Lafite," he says, referring to what oenophiles consider one of the best wines in the world from one of the best years, "they made 20,000 cases of that wine.

A tale of easy student Loans, for-profit schools & private equity
The most striking feature of the Direct PLUS Loan program is that it limits neither the amount that a school can charge for attendance nor the amount that can be borrowed in federal loans. "This is, for a private-equity firm, a remarkably attractive arrangement: the investors get their money up front, in the form of the tuition paid for by student loans. Meanwhile, any subsequent default on those loans is somebody else's problem—in this case, the federal government's." [more inside]

NYC and Breastfeeding
During his tenure as Mayor of New York City, "public health autocrat" Michael Bloomberg has attempted to regulate trans fats, smoking and sugar-filled sodas. Now, he has a fresh target: moms who don't breastfeed. Beginning September 3, NYC hospitals participating in a new, voluntary program: Latch-On NYC (press release / posters / FAQ -pdf-), will make formula less accessible, to encourage moms of newborns to breastfeed instead of using formula.

Re: Dune - The Book and the 1984 film *spoilers for both*
As much as I like Frank Herbert, and enjoy almost every Dune book, the House series of Prequels were better than Herberts books after Children of Dune. Thats not to say I don't like God Emperor and later books (inlcuding the Brian Herbert/KA books finishing the series) because I dso like them, but House atreides/Harkonnen/Corrino are really good. not quite as good as Dune/Messiah/CoD, but still really good and a close second to those books. Besides the Butlarian Jihand/Sisterhood prequels set thousands of years in the past, I enjoy all of the BH/KA Dune books.

Hard Boiled Egg Chocolate Chip Cookies
These Hard Boiled Egg Chocolate Chip Cookies are SO delicious! They taste just like a regular Chocolate Chip Cookie, but with a slightly different texture. I LOVED these!
Ok, I get that these sound weird.
Gross even?
But trust my dear friends, I shant tell a lie.
Here's the thing. I have basically made every type of Chocolate Chip Cookie under the sun. For real.
I feel like it's getting a little old at this point…but thus I continue.
Also, I have been watching a lot of Game of Throne lately, so I find myself using olden-days type of words into my everyday speak.
Anyway, like I said last week I am working with Challenge Butter this year…and I was poking around their website at recipes and came across this Hard Boiled Egg Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe and knew I must make.
Because weird.
So anyhow, I gave it a go, because I have about 2 dozen hard boiled eggs left from Easter that I need to start using up.
(FYI, I googled how long hard boiled eggs were good for after boiled and it said 7 days in the fridge)
So basically I knew time was running out. It was a cookie emergency.
Let's talk about possibly my new favorite chocolate chip. I swear it.
You'll notice these cookies are a touch more dense than a normal CCC…and the dough is a bit dryer, but obvi because there are no wet eggs. Don't fret, it's fine.
I actually prefer a denser cookie. The trick though is the baking time. Please oh please don't over bake these guys. Under bake them, even. If you cook them all the way through you will have hard dry cookies. Yuck.
Grab 2 hard boiled eggs. And peel them, for the love.
Dice those eggs up small…
Dump them into your dough…
And chocolate chips…of course.
Your batter will be pretty standard, just a little drier. Also, yes you might see bits of egg…don't worry about this.
Scoop your dough into a lined baking sheet…
And bake them until they are golden around the edges. Again, do not over bake.
They actually turn out to be the prettiest chocolate chip cookies ever!!
Give them a shot, I'd love to hear your opinion!
- 1 cup Challenge Butter, room temperature
- 1¼ cups light brown sugar, packed
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 2 hard boiled eggs, peeled and small diced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2¼ cups flour
- 2 cups chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350°
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
- In bowl of stand mixer cream together butter and brown sugar, approximately 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add in vanilla diced eggs and continue mixing. (You will still see egg bits in the batter, this is ok)
- Add in baking soda, salt and flour and mix until combined.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Scoop onto prepared pan using a cookies scoop or a large spoon.
- Bake for 9-10 minutes until edges begin to golden. You don't want to over-bake these, if in doubt under-bake. Because of the lack of wet eggs, the batter will be dry, making cookie dense. Over-baking will produce hard, dry cookies.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes on baking sheet before set enough to transfer to a wire rack.
*I was either compensated and/or provided product for this post by Challenge Butter, but all opinions are decidedly my own. I am a huge fan of Challenge Butter!

Wait. Hard boiled eggs? In chocolate chip cookies? Never, ever in a bajillion years would I have thought this up, but you know what? Your goods have never let me down thus far, so imma try them. You have totally piqued my intrigue.
April 23, 2014 at 8:54 pm
I have to admit at first I was a little freaked out…but these look super yummy! Going to have to try them next time I have some left over eggs.
April 23, 2014 at 10:11 pm
This is a blast from the past! I think the egg trick is an Italian thing for short bread; anyway it sure make cookies tasty!
Love this recipe, have to try it again soon just for old times sake
April 23, 2014 at 10:42 pm
Ok,I am SO making these tomorrow! It's funny because I was about to bake the other day with my 5 year old daughter and I told her we need 4 eggs…I looked in the fridge and all I had was hard boiled eggs! Ack! I told her we had to run to the store for eggs and she couldn't understand why we couldn't just use the boiled ones. Now I wish I would have tried it! Can't wait to try these!
April 23, 2014 at 11:03 pm
OK, you have me intrigued. I thought I had heard of (or made!) every chocolate chip cookie twist under the sun, but you found a new one. Clearly, I'll need to eat at least 10 for "research."
April 24, 2014 at 12:03 am
I made these tonight. I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to try such an unexpected twist to chocolate chip cookies. They are interesting and delicious! It was difficult to finely chop the egg whites so you can still see some bits and pieces here and there. I wonder if I just cut up the yolk and left the eggs whites out what would change in the consistency of the cookies…? Thanks for posting this recipe!
April 24, 2014 at 2:08 am
Would never have thought to put hard boiled eggs into a cookie before. I think its genius!
April 24, 2014 at 1:28 pm
This is a fun new way to make a cookie! They look amazing
April 24, 2014 at 2:08 pm
I would have thought this was an April Fools joke. . . if it had been a few days earlier. Is the dough yummy, too? I will have to try since I love choco chip cookies!
April 24, 2014 at 2:24 pm
What about grating the hard-boiled eggs instead of chopping? Would that blend in better?
April 24, 2014 at 2:24 pm
What an interesting idea! I never would have thought of doing that. In fact, I read the title and was like "Wait, what?!"
April 24, 2014 at 2:31 pm
I have to admit the concept sounds SOOO gross but the cookies look SOOO perfect. I'm going to have to check these out for myself!
April 24, 2014 at 2:34 pm
Ohhh yes. I remember one of our blogger friend did boiled egg cookies a few years ago….I always meant to make them and totally forgot. Thanks for the yummy reminder!
April 24, 2014 at 9:24 pm
I trust you, but this looks so weird!
April 25, 2014 at 8:41 am
I am sooooo intrigued! Gotta give this a try!
April 25, 2014 at 11:33 am
annnnd this is why I love you! I bet the texture of these is fabulous! Gotta try it!
April 25, 2014 at 2:22 pm
Thanks for sharing this one – I am so intrigued! I love a denser cookie and these sure fit the bill!!
April 26, 2014 at 11:36 pm
Just made these. So delicious! Thank you for yet another great recipe!
April 27, 2014 at 4:45 am
I have admit that these cookies sound strange, but look very delicious
April 27, 2014 at 11:10 am
LOVE this! Now I will always be excited to have leftover hard boiled eggs – I can make cookies!
April 29, 2014 at 6:35 am
These are CRAZY. But that's all the more reason to try them.
May 1, 2014 at 1:44 am
Okay, I'll admit I'm intrigued, and you've made these sound quite tasty. I always have too many eggs. I'll have to try them out.
June 14, 2014 at 5:14 pm
My mother used to make a swedish butter cookie with hard boiled eggs.
She passed the eggs thru a potato ricer. They were magic with no decernable egg bits.
March 31, 2015 at 10:51 pm
Interesting! I am also thinking this brings eating raw cookie dough to a whole new level
April 4, 2015 at 8:43 pm
Two eggs cracked as I boiled 2 doz for the kids to dye. So I grabbed them and used them to make these cookies. I almost gagged as I scooped up the batter onto the cookie sheets. Seeing the chunks of eggs in there was unappetizing. But they came out of the oven tender, dense, and full of chocolaty-goodness. We all loved them. Which is awesome because no one in my house will eat boiled eggs. I usually just throw the dyed ones away a few days after Easter. Have you tried any variations of this recipe? I may – I have 22 more eggs to use up!
April 6, 2015 at 5:23 pm
I am really having my doubts about these cookies, but I'll give anything a try once …
April 7, 2015 at 1:27 pm
Perfect! I've been eating one egg a day since Easter, which means most will go to waste, so this is perfect. Will be making tonight. Thanks!
April 8, 2015 at 8:45 pm
I made these this morning. They are great. I did want to mention, though, that some of mine have tiny chewy bits in them. I may have overcboiled my eggs, though, which may have something to do with it.
April 7, 2015 at 7:08 pm

April 8, 2015 at 3:42 am
From where I am from we use hard boiled eggs. But instead of chopping it , we grate it.
The biscuits are delicious
April 10, 2015 at 2:29 pm
I consider myself a bit of a baked goods snob. Subpar baked goods will not be consumed by me. Grocery store cookies? Gag. At least I can admit my problem!
Anyway, I made these cookies today. I nearly had to fight my children for the last two hard boiled eggs from Easter. But oh it was worth it. These were so good (I say WERE because they are gone). I wouldn't quite describe them as more dense, actually, I can't quite put my finger on the textural difference. Great recipe! I subbed almond extract for the vanilla because I like it and I was out of vanilla (for shame!).
April 11, 2015 at 11:20 pm
I love hard boiled eggs but really?! Well you've never led me astray before and I practically worship you and your yum treats so I'll giver a go
April 11, 2015 at 11:24 pm
So if the egg is cooked we can totally eat this raw right?!? You genius you!!
April 12, 2015 at 1:41 pm
i just gotta say I'm very intrigued adn excited about the idea of hard boiled eggs on cookies!!
I just got to ask you, for any standard CCC recipe, is it possible (with good results) to replace butter with margarine? It's just than (idk in the U.S.) in my country is waaaay cheaper and more usual to use it instead of butter.
Have you tried it? I would love to know if you have and what turned out!
Thank you!!
July 24, 2015 at 4:45 pm
These cookies certainly look delish. I also read somewhere once about using plain fat-free Greek yogurt in place of the fat in most cooking and baking. Haven't tried it in cookie recipes yet but it's worked well as a replacement for the oil that most cake mixes from the store usually call for.

Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia
by Jean Sasson
Women in Islam (72)
500 Great Books by Women (181)
KayStJ's to-read list (1,144)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Well written and infuriating at times. Jean Sasson writes with clarity and humor about life in an oppressive (and messed up) culture. For things to improve it will take a lot more women acting with bravery and determination. A handful of women can't change the culture by themselves.
*Warning: spoilers*
The story that "Princess Sultana" shares is one of tragedy and sorrow experienced by those considered the lesser sex in Saudi Arabia. Though born into unimaginable privilege, Princess Sultana is not immune from the suffering that those of her gender are almost destined to experience. First, she is married off to her cousin by her father, without her consent, after the death of her mother. However, unlike most arranged marriages, she gets to actually meet the man before her wedding and discovers he's actually nice.
You can see Sultana struggle as she tries to find her voice in a world where women are discouraged from doing so. At times, she goes from being judgmental to immature, but aren't we all? Yes, as the other reviewer pointed out, you do see her prejudicial view points when she refers to the salaried workers as "lowly". However, I imagine that most royals consider people outside their class lowly, or unfortunate. Yet her life is far from superior considering she has no control over her own. She, like most Saudi women, cannot drive, go to school, or leave the house without her husband's permission.
Sultana is your typical passive aggressive feminist meaning, she often flips and flops when it comes to standing up for herself. One example, is when she runs away from her husband Kareem, after he announces he wants to take a second wife. Yet in another chapter, we watch Sultana idly sit by and watch after her sister Sara, reconciles with her husband, after being raped and beaten so badly that she ends up in the hospital, in need of a colostomy bag. That part was shocking to read, it may have also been a turning point in the psyche of the Princess. I know I was never the same after reading that!
All in all, Jean Sasson did a wonderful job presenting this complicated woman to the world. Say what you will, it is a page turner!
A Saudi Arabian princess describes the inequities for women in her country, discussing arranged marriages for child brides, the murder of female babies, and her own life in the shadow of men. 100,000 first printing. $85,000 ad/promo. Lit Guild Alt. First serial, Cosmopolitan. Tour.
A first person account (though written by an American author / friend) of a princess of Arabia, which talks about how women are viewed and treated as possessions in Saudi Arabia. and whose lives are dictated by the men. The veil and 'abaaya' that these women are required to wear hide more than their appearance; they also hide a lot of pain, hurt and abuse. This is the story of a feisty Sultana who at every possibility, fights against those oppressions that hold the women in her country bondage.
My heart was breaking about this story. I couldn't put it down. Then, I couldn't stop talking about it. It's awful to hear how women are treated over there. This was an excellent book, every American, man or woman needs to read this!

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0967673747, Paperback)Sultana is a Saudi Arabian princess, a woman born to fabulous, uncountable wealth. She has four mansions on three continents, her own private jet, glittering jewels, designer dresses galore. But in reality she lives in a gilded cage. She has no freedom, no control over her own life, no value but as a bearer of sons. Hidden behind her black floor-length veil, she is a prisoner, jailed by her father, her husband, her sons, and her country.Sultana is a member of the Saudi royal family, closely related to the king. For the sake of her daughters, she has decided to take the risk of speaking out about the life of women in her country, regardless of their rank. She must hide her identity for fear that the religous leaders in her country would call for her death to punish her honesty. Only a woman in her position could possibly hope to escape from being revealed and punished, despite her cloak and anonymity.Sultana tells of her own life, from her turbulent childhood to her arranged marriage--a happy one until her husband decided to displace her by taking a second wife--and of the lives of her sisters, her friends and her servants. Although they share affection, confidences and an easy camaraderie within the confines of the women's quarters, they also share a history of appaling oppressions, everyday occurrences that in any other culture would be seen as shocking human rights violations; thirteen-year-old girls forced to marry men five times their age, young women killed by drowning, stoning, or isolation in the "women's room," a padded, windowless cell where women are confined with neither light nor conversation until death claims them.By speaking out, Sultana risks bringing the wrath of the Saudi establishment upon her head and te heads of her children. But by telling her story to Jean Sasson, Sultana has allowed us to see beyond the veils of this secret society, to the heart of a nation where sex, money, and power reign supreme.

A Saudi woman discusses what life is like for women in her country, describing how women are sold into marriage to men five times their age, are treated as their husbands' slaves, and are often murdered for the slightest transgression.
