Cookie Monster

If you know anything about the Van Wagenen family, you know that we like our cookies.  If you ever stopped by on a Sunday there would for sure be cookies in the house.

I carried on this Sunday cookie making tradition.  When I was pregnant and sick I couldn't handle making cookies so my husband knew that he would have to step up to the plate if Sunday cookies were to be made.  

Last night I needed a sweet treat. I am experimenting not eating dairy  because of my son's gastrointestinal issues.  Of course, ice cream was the only treat in the house.  I was craving cookies, more specifically cookie dough (that is my weak point).  

After eating a delicious milkshake, watching his wife drool over it, and listening to her mention how much she wanted cookie dough, my husband whipped up a fantastic batch of double chocolate chip cookies.  

My oh my they were delicious.  My husband has far surpassed any baking abilities I thought I may have had.  I love that man.

Here are some old pictures of him baking up a storm.  I believe the cookies pictured below are oatmeal chocolate chip cookies or Van Wag cookies as they have come to be called.
