Wow. I just had the best cookie I've ever eaten. It was so good, I knew it deserved its own thread on these boards, so that it could be immortalized and so that CV could order a dozen ... Behold, the Hope's Royale. Scroll down for description. This came with a box lunch from a local cafe. Clearly this cafe has done its homework.

Those cookies do look good.
My favorite has to be the Inn at Little Washington's currant and walnut oatmeal cookie. Nothing about them is ordinary. They are like the oatmeal raisin cookie your grandmother made on steroids - made with the finest twists that push them into gourmet standing. Interestingly, they are topped with sea salt that really makes the cookie sparkle. They are reputed to be Bush 43's favorite, too (the pastry chef there used to work at the White house), but I don't let that get in the way of my enjoyment.

I think my wife said she wants to do steaks tonight.
That means it'll be time to make my "Blue Balsamic" glaze. I take a some good sized crumbles of Maytag Blue Cheese and add a few tablespoons of Villa Manodori Aged Balsamic vinegar. The best balsamic I've ever had. I just barely mix them together and then spread it over the steaks, just as they're almost done. The heat warms up the glaze and starts melting the cheese.
Not that good steaks really need much help, but the sharpness of the cheese combined with the sweet and sensual nature of the Balsamic on a perfectly cooked steak just blow my mind. It's heaven on a plate. For me anyway.
Yum.
And just to keep it Axiom related, my wife and I enjoy cooking together and we almost always have the Axiom's on in the background providing some cooking music of some sort.

My steak seasoning: sprinkle on each side
* Italian seasoning * Seasonall * garlic salt
I think that combo activates about every taste receptor my brain has.

Garlic salt only here.
Although my father in law does nice things with garlic salt and pepper.

Yeah, when my wife seasons the steaks, she dashes on white pepper as well.
While bleu cheese = epic FAIL, Ken, your steak seasoning passes muster with medic8r.
I know you'll sleep better tonight.
