The Real Way to Eat an Oreo Cookie
|
Don't forget to head over and bookmark my new blog address: www.petersonclan.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Recently we had friends over who taught us the "Civilized" way to eat an Oreo Cookie. It was so absolutely sublime that I just HAD to share it with all my bloggity friends. 1)It must be a REAL Oreo Cookie. Anything else is inferior.  2) Using a thinner fork, or a knife, insert the prongs into the icing of the cookie.  (We had 19 kids in the house... we ran out of forks!) 3) Dunk Oreo into a mug of milk. THIS IS IMPORTANT!! You Must obtain enough milk to reach Depth of Dunkability... the oreo must be thoroughly submerged.  You cannot see them, but there will be bubbles coming up from the cookie. When the bubbles stop, there is the perfect amount of milk saturation. The cookie will be soft on the outside, but crunchy on the inside. Absolute perfection. 4) When pulling the oreo out of the milk, one must turn it on it's side. This allows the surface tension of the milk combined with the grooves in the cookie to keep the milk from dripping off. If you put it vertical, the milk just runs out and ruins the whole thing. See?  5) Eat. And enjoy. ;)  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You may be wondering exactly WHY I have wasted good time writing this? Well, I do have a point. The point is to SAVOR simple things. Enjoy them. Make the moments last. As I have said before, the days are long and the years are short. The children will all grow up, and someday it will just be me and my wonderful husband puttering around our house. And I want to remember how wonderful it was to eat an Oreo cookie. Or read around the Christmas Tree. Or play a loud silly game. Any of the fun things which sometimes get pushed aside for the mundane in life... laundry, diapers, and piles and piles of dishes. So go eat an Oreo Cookie, and ENJOY!!! |
