Its That Time Again...

Birthday Time!

I don't celebrate birthdays on PJ very often anymore. Mostly I just forget.
Just being honest.

But today is a special birthday!!!

It's PJ's Birthday!

#3!

So, I asked PJ what he wants for his birthday. Being 3 years old, he's grown out of the usual...you know, birthday cake clip art, new template, etc, etc.

What he's asked for is comments. Hey, give me a break. This isn't me comment-mongering, guys. Its all him.

I told him how sometimes people are a bit...ya know...reluctant to comment. I mean, he may have 12 "followers" but he only averages 2 comments/post (he would like to thank Sonya, Danica, and PL for their faithful reading). Just sayin'!

So he said to give you guys a little incentive.

Here's what I'm doing. Today I am making some triple chocolate cookies. Wait.

There is some history here. See, triple chocolate cookies are really not that easy to find.
Some time ago I went to a lot of trouble to discover a satisfactory from-scratch recipe. It was unsuccessful. They cookies always turned out dry, crumbly, and simply not chocolaty enough. I wanted big and chewy and heart-stoppingly chocolaty cookies! Like the ones from Subway, but not made from entirely artificial ingredients.

Anyway, my search ended fruitlessly, UNTIL...one day, while in Ireland, the little girl I gave piano lessons made some triple chocolate cookies. And they were THE triple chocolate cookies.

Of course I nabbed the recipe.

So. Back to my incentive.

I am making the cookies today. If you leave a comment today, you will enter for a chance to win-

a. A large Triple Chocolate Cookie! Instant gratification!

or

b. The coveted secret recipe for these Triple Chocolate Cookies! (for those who are too far away to receive a fresh cookie)

or

c. if you're just not that into chocolate (I know, its sick and twisted but there ARE people like that out there) I will think of something else to get you. Or you could just comment anyway. C'mon its for poor little PJ.

Ooooooooh. Your Mom offered me one of your cookies this morning at church, and I declined, not knowing the occasion.
I had already had a muffin that Angie brought in from Timmy's, and that was after breakfast ast home.
Anywhoo, Happy Birthday to your blog. I enjoy it.

Well I guess since you wrote about blogging karma, I thought I'd write back over on your blog since I got a wonderful email in my inbox telling me you'd written on my blog. Ugh, the guilt/not really of not blogging. I started the blog with a purpose and now it's kind of behind me. But I suppose I could update peeps.
I'd love to have your recipe... I know I'm a bit late because the blog birthday was a few days ago... but I'd still love it! (I'm trying to be all domesticated over here).
