How could I have missed the fact that October is National Cookie Month?  In honor of this occasion, I’m planning to bake a batch of cookies this weekend.  Suggestions, my friends?  What’s your favorite cookie?

I recently saw a recipe for pumpkin cream cheese sandwich cookies that sounded just divine.  It’s tough to surpass old favorites, though–a basic chocolate chip cookie is hard to beat.   Except, perhaps with a molasses cookie.  Or a frosted sugar cookie.  Or . . .

Whatever your passion, get thee to a bakery (or a kitchen)!  National Cookie Month comes but once a year.
