Tough Cookie
"30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS [13+]:
18. Bake Cookies Day
As if we need a designated day for this, lol.
Write about your favorite cookie(s) or cookie baking experience.
Anything to do with cookies!


"JAFBG [XGC]:
You wrote a Christmas list but accidentally addressed it to Satan instead of Santa. What gifts will you be getting this year?


Nothing either way because both characters are mythological.

But hey, I'm sometimes a fiction writer, so I can play along.

I would like the following things for Christmas:

A pony
Santa: I end up with a plastic Twilight Sparkle.
Satan: There's an ebony-maned steed with flaming red eyes snorting in my backyard.

A bike
Santa: A three-speed mountain bicycle.
Satan: 2020 Harley-Davidson Roadster waiting in front of my house.

A new gaming computer
Santa: Refurbished Dell
Satan: Acer Predator with liquid nitrogen cooled processor

A time machine
Santa: A digital watch
Satan: The TARDIS

A robot servant
Santa: Roomba
Satan: Data the android from Star Trek

On the downside, well, Santa would bring me all of those admittedly very nice things in exchange for some fresh-baked cookies (see, I worked the cookies into the entry too). I don't think Satan's interested in any cookies I could bake. Well... maybe if I made them double chocolate fudge chip with chocolate syrup drizzled on them... but no, I think I'd have to pony (pun intended) up something just a little more valuable.

Could be worth it, though, just for the Acer.
