You brought me back a lemon and you squeezed me tight

"Would a Calvinist have just scoffed an entire bag of fish jerky?" I reasonably texted selkie, who had just significantly improved the evening of a week that has taken a deeply unwanted turn for the medical by causing a bagful of groceries and seltzer to appear on the front steps. Hestia professed interest in the little squares of maple-and-coconut salmon, but had to content herself with treats designed for delectation of cat and curling up on the couch next to me. I am fascinated by the pumpkin spice cookies that come ready to bake from refrigerated. The bananas are already having a short shelf life.

ETA: Later texted to spatch: "Who the hell is going to steal and sell Pedialyte? If you could get high off it, I'd have spent 2023 as a kite."

The cookies are the same ilk as the 150 I baked today, but I thought you’d enjoy your tapioca-and-wishes cookie with spice. If you like them soft, bake them as they are; if you prefer crisp-kinda, bonk them with the heel of your hand before baking .

*hugs*

I am a soft-cookie person except where biscotti are concerned and appreciate this tip.

I don’t think they’d ever get a shatter to them, being predominantly tapioca, but it did remind me to ask about your unbirthday-cake feelings for October!

Molasses? All the stuff that goes in pumpkin spice but doesn't have to be pumpkin spice by proportion? Normally autumnal ingredients?

< I don't suppose the weird tapioca cookies are gluten free? >

[selkie]

Oh, they’re almost everything-free and actually pretty affordable for now; the company is Sweet Loren’s and the cookie dough is in the dairy case at Whole Foods, Target, and whatever Giant Foods is called in your area; I lost track in New England but I think Giant is Stop and Shop and Shaws is Safeway?
Gluten, dairy, egg, soy, peanut, tree nut, sesame and seven other allergens are not present in their products. And they taste good!
