I Just Ate Too Many Cookies

I do a really good job of aimlessly cruising around the Internet and eating cookies at the same time. I guess that is what happens after a busy day of work. Of course the cookies are homemade, I am selective and wouldn't waste a stomachache on anything but homemade chocolate chip. While I am on the topic of cookies I don't know what people did for recipes before the Internet. I do have a million cookbooks (and I know that is what people used pre-Internet). But the luxury of googling recipes that you've lost or had at a party is wonderful and I can't get enough of food blogs and their beautiful pictures that make me want to try everything I see. I guess technology has changed my relationship with the kitchen! Aside from food, technology is constantly changing my life. I feel I am constantly asking what we did before the Internet...even though I grew up without it. It makes me realize that I adapt so quickly to changing technology that I forget what life was like without it...it's a little scary or a lot scary at times! Even with my phone, for the past year I've had a smart phone and I can't imagine what I did before having the Internet on my phone. When I was out of the country recently it was really hard not to use the Internet on my phone (otherwise I would be charged millions of dollars for using it). I was going through withdrawal from checking emails and looking up restaurants. I adapted and could function...but there were so many moments that I wanted to pull my phone out and use it. Luckily all our hotels had wi-fi and I had my laptop with me.
