*sigh*
Yep, another picture-less week. Nikon has received my camera as of Saturday, so I'm hopeful that I'll have it back in the next 7-10 days. Another point for Nikon - they emailed me an "invoice" telling me that a) my camera is under warranty so the repair will be free and b) exactly what accessories (battery, memory card, etc) my camera came with. Nothing like peace of mind for my poor little camera.
But that hasn't stopped me from baking! I currently have brownies, cake, and two types of cookies in my freezer right now. Don't look at me cross-eyed - it's the only way I can keep myself from sneaking cookie after cookie at night! Lucky for me, one of the types of cookies I have squirreled away is this honey wheat cookie. As crunchy-hippy as these cookies may sound (a cup of wheat germ?), they're a wonderful surprise. Soft, slightly sweet (I used a pumpkin honey from my local farmer's market), and wonderfully textured from the wheat germ.
And please tell me I'm not the only one who sat there and portioned out the cookies, rolled them in wheat germ, and decided that they looked exactly like haystacks? Cute little furry haystack-cookies? I nearly didn't bake them, just because they looked so adorable unbaked. But no worries - just for you, readers, they were sacrificed. I mean baked. And eaten. This is a sleeper hit of a cookie recipe, let me tell you. Although I have a secret: I didn't take them into work. Wheat germ is wasted on guys who believe the only good beer is Miller Lite *shudder*
So take home message? Well, two - Nikon is awesome, and so are these honey wheat cookies. So Michelle? You rock. In an awesomely crunchy-hippy-wheat germ-y way.

Hooray for the good news! Honey wheatgerm cookies sound divine. Bet they looked good too ;)
Hah! And here I was thinking you were sequestering them in the freezer so you could belatedly take pictures of them when you get your camera back ;)
Glad your camera is in good hands :) Hope you get it back sooner than later! I liked these cookies pretty well, didn't love them, but liked them :)
hope your camera gets better soon! those cookies sound really nice :)
Pumpkin honey? Where can I get some?
Sorry about your camera. I hope it is back soon!
I'm starting to wish I would have went with a Nikon camera..
I also loved these cookies!
so glad you enjoyed them! I loved them too!
Hey! My hubby drinks Miller Lite! :) Loved these cookies. They were definitely a sleeper hit. I almost didn't make them. Glad I did!
I didn't exactly think "haystacks" but I know what you mean. =) I was tempted not to bake mine either, but that's just because the dough was so tasty.
Man, I give you credit for your patience. If I had been without my camera for this long I'd be pretty upset by now. Hope you get it soon!
I thought the cookies were cute before baking too though haystacks didn't come to mind. These were surprisingly good!
Thank you sweetie! I hope your camera gets up and running soon..I know you miss it!
Im glad you baked with me this week and you enjoyed the cookies!
I didn't bother taking mine to work either - those men just don't appreciate this type of cookie!
I didn't tell David they had wheat germ in them. He seemed to like them, but now that I finally have my post up he may be on to me and not want them anymore! Though I did dip mine in a thyme infused icing just for good measure.
Sorry about the camera but you give a pretty good description. I could say that I ate moderately of these, but I think I should be happy that I only made half a batch as I was looking for a cookie to go with my tea for a couple of days.
gosh, it must suck to be without your camera! i hope you get it back soon!
oh no! hope you get your camera bake soon -- at least Nikon is being great about it!
oh those sound great!
