This is a sort of sequel to my last entry, except that I didn't write this one. And, like many sequels, it fundamentally contradicts the best parts of the previous installment. Sequels. "Prequel" is not a word, in the exact same way that "mocktail" is not a word. Actually, if you stare at "sequel" for long enough, it doesn't look much like a word

But that's not the purpose of this reply, no it is not. No, I ignore all your Star Wars-related links and follow-up on "mocktail," sort of. I was offered some "rawies" today at lunch. These were unbaked cookies. Since "cookies" implies that the item has been cooked, the clever minds behind these unbaked goods thought they should be called "rawies." As marketing ploys go, I don't think it's so clever. -em.
ps. I understand you have a key. I have cash. I may stop by Sunday to effect an exchange. S'okay?-em

I'm a fan of the "raw" cookie dough you find in ice cream, but actual cookie dough kind of freaks me out. That E. coli scare at Jack in the Box coincided with what I guess was a very formative period for me, because I've been a violent germaphobe ever since. (It's worth noting that while "germaphobe" - or "germophobe"? I don't know - is not a real word, "germanophobe" apparently is.) So my question about the "rawies" is this: were they "no-bake" affairs that somehow hardened into starchy, cookie-like things, or were they just little mounds of dough?
Such an exchange would be mutually beneficial! Sounds good. I should be home doing homework most if not all of Sunday.
