Booze month continues.
This week I wanted to do a Bailey’s Irish Cream cookie because I’ve always heard of Bailey’s and Coffee.
I don’t drink coffee.
And I don’t drink alcohol.
I decided to try both in a cookie.
Unsurprisingly there is instant coffee in the recipe.
I happen to have instant coffee in my pantry.
And Bailey’s Irish Cream in the bar.
I wanted to maximize the number of cookies in this batch.
Because I wanted to stretch the cookies out to be enough for 2 departments.
A single batch of dough netted me 5 cookie sheets of 16-20 cookies each.
You want to know the secret?
The smallest cookie scoop I have.
The lion’s share of the cookies will go the OR.
And the remaining 12 will go to administration.
Why administration as the second department recipient of Cookie Thursday is a Thing?
Because it never hurts to butter up the bosses.
And I believe that they’ve had their challenges during the pandemic.
I can imagine keeping a hospital afloat during the worst health crisis in our lives is hard.
Kind of like steering a ship through turbulent waters during a hurricane.
I know that many people have beef with any hospital leadership.
Even ours.
Are they perfect?
No.
Do they deserve a treat?
Yes.
Don’t forget they have administrative staff that works just as hard as they do.
