    Why not a lot of cookies? I don't either. I just make 'em.

    Are we seriously 7 pages into this and still not a single cigar review? Or was there one?

    And I'd challenge you to a bake-off. Definitely can hold my own in a cook-off but I'm pretty confident in my baking skills as well. Actually, I'm making another batch of cider and will have lots of apple and pear pulp soon. Was thinking of making a bunch of loaves of apple-pear bread. A friend of mine owns a breakfast place nearby and was going to bring a few loaves to her for french toast. Throw some ginger infused syrup together to top those bad-boys off and you've got breakfast.

    Rob! Were you not paying attention? I reviewed two cigars. They were both yummy and **** good respectively. I could totally take you in a cookie bake-off. I have never met a better cookie baker.

    I am so hungry now. Apple pear bread!!

    Okay, so last night I talked some shop via Skype with one of my homies and then he had to go, and I had half of a cigar left, so I hopped on vherf. Surprise! It was like the best reunion ever... Jiiun and Roman, who dragged me into this mess. (thanks guys)

    Ok, here's my review of the Undercrown Gran Toro that Ro told me I should smoke tonight.

    DELICIOUS! I loved it. It burned really well until I got distracted texting on my phone and left it sitting too long. Oops. It tasted great with the giant jug of water I had because I had just finished cardio. It did not however, pair well with the strawberry protein shake I chugged after. It made me want to learn how to blow smoke rings. The end.

    Here's who I want to convert to cigars once she's no longer knocked up. This is my "baby" sister, who is 3 inches taller than me. Neither one of us can play basketball to save our lives but we can reach all the high shelves in the house.

    If he reviews it on the V-herf, he can make everyone jealous.

    That's a great idea. I hope those things show up not in pieces.

    I'm not really a baker but do like to cook and am pretty good at that. A few years ago though I saw a recipe for what I think they called Monster Cookies. It was like Chocolate Chip Cookies but it had white and milk chocolate chips and then you added m&ms, peanut butter, oatmeal and raisins (used Craisins which are dried cranberries instead) and they were really good as you can imagine.

    My absolute favorite to make is called a brownie chubette. Dark and chocolatey...mocha flavored with chunks of dark chocolate and pecans.

    Chocolate chip Pecan Cookies Review

    photo IMG-20140919-WA0009.jpeg

    Number of cookies consumed for review: 3
    construction: slightly irregular, but solid construction, even after interstate transport
    Color: light blonde color with choc and pecan chunks
    Nose: a smooth choc nose with hints of nuts
    flavor: Just as your expected...some yummy cookie dough in the background, that is not too sweet, yet flavorful. Nice hints of chocolate that pair nicely with the pecans.

    Overall:94. There is a nice nose combined with a great palate. the finish is short, but delicious. Overal medium bodied with full flavor. I definitely recommend getting some of these. DO IT NOW!

    It's the Oliva "V" Melanio of cookies.

    Last night I decided to throw caution to the wind and sat down with a tiny amount of cask strength whiskey and a very nice cigar, both given to me Roman. The cigar was the Ave Maria Reconquista, which came in a cool little coffin. I love that. Anyways, I thought this cigar was one of the best that I have tried so far. A stronger cigar that was more difficult to retrohale, although that also could've been because it was 45 **** degrees outside.

    The whiskey surprised me.... At first I could barely swallow it, but with a few tips from Roman, got it drinkable quickly. And then it got me buzzed quickly. Thankfully I don't think I said anything too ridiculous on vherf. Had fun with you guys! And Randy... I'll start digging into Cigar 101. Or.... Maybe I should just PM you? ;)
