Violence, fires, Game 7, a green life, Nabisco Oreo (Wafers)
Henry picked me up, and we talked about my cough: Gwyneth had the flu recently. I hope I'm not getting sick, although I'm more accommodating than she is - every time I try talking to her nowadays, she tells me: "I'M NOT TALKING!" Oh well, better than walking off somewhere without saying that? Who knows. He says the praise and worship yesterday went well, except maybe the Mandarin songs since nobody knew them! (so why include them in your set?) Also discussed some bubble tea place I've never heard of, Boston Pizza, the hockey game tonight, tonight's plans, etc. At Awana, we had a new kid named Jordan, who wanted to draw a firetruck / burning building / himself as a fireman. Jason told me that Amos wasn't here today because he was at the dentist (poor guy!), and Andrew said he'd been on MSN all day - no homework, but just projects! Heh, he'll see who I am on MSN once I add him! Some of the kids were being kinda violent because they were trying to kick each other in a rather private area - yikes!
Well, it's going to be a Game 7 in Vancouver on Monday since the Stars won 2-0. They've never come back from a 3-1 series deficit, and we don't want a repeat of Minnesota doing the same to us! Damn shutouts! Stupid giveaways and undisciplined penalties, especially at the end of the game! Misconducts and penalties, and a game-ending fight! Not much to be done about that, except hope the game doesn't go into OT and interfere with a certain TV show, haha. Zubov and Morrow are injured now, heh. Off to do more dungeons and maybe start on those space adventures! :D
Nabisco Oreo (Wafers)
1 18.25-ounce package Betty Crocker chocolate fudge cake mix
3 tablespoons shortening, melted
1/2 cup cake flour, measured then sifted
1 egg
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons brown paste food coloring (optional)*
1. Combine the cookie ingredients in a large bowl. Add the water a little bit at a time until the dough forms. Cover and chill for 2 hours.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out a portion of the dough to just under one 16th of an inch thick. To cut, use a lid from a spice container with a 1 1/2-inch diameter (Schilling brand is good). Arrange the cut dough rounds on a cookie sheet that is sprayed with a light coating of non-stick spray. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove wafers from the oven and cool completely.
4. As the cookies bake, make the filling (recipe in More Top Secret Recipes on page 68).
5. When the cookies have cooled, roll a small portion (heaping 1/4 teaspoon) of the filling into a ball (just over 1/4-inch in diameter), and press it between two of the cookies. Repeat with the remaining cookies. Makes 108-116 wafers; for 54-58 sandwich cookies.
* This is an optional step to help recreate the color of the original cookie. If you do not use the paste food coloring, be sure to change the amount of water added to the wafer cookies from 3 tablespoons to 1/4 cup. The food coloring gives the cookies the dark brown, almost black color. The coloring can be found with cake decorating supplies at art supply and craft stores.
Tidbits
If the dough seems too tacky, you can work in as much as 1/4 cup of flour as you pat out and roll the dough. Use just enough flour to make the dough workable, but not tough.
