It's common knowledge amongst friends that baking is a challenge for me. I can cook fantastic, elaborate and involved recipes, but when it comes to baking, I struggle. I blame it on the exactness of measurements and the patience to roll, knead or blend ingredients. After my infamous disaster making sugar cookies years ago, I normally shy away from preparing treats in my kitchen, and instead look to the many local bakeries to fill that void.
Recently I was given cookies from Lori's Homemade Cookies (5070 Sante Fe Street Suite A, San Diego). It was a large, plump and fresh cookie with big chunks of chocolate mixed into an oatmeal dough. It also came packaged in their signature box (a brown square box), tied with a ribbon with a rectangular printed note. I appreciated the creative logo, and liked the simplicity in design of the package. For me, analyzing the outside was just as enjoyable as eating the insides.
