Chocolate Chips Have Arrived!

My dad, having the innate need to fix things, bought me a huge bag of chocolate chips from Sam's Club to stuff in K's luggage for the trip back home. After hearing how expensive they were here, he decided I needed the biggest bag American money could buy...so he went to Sam's! K also had a much requested bag of Sam's Club pancake mix in his carry on. Every Saturday and Sunday morning we make eggs and pancakes for the kids, and our bag of mix was running dangerously low. An airport security lady asked as his bag was scanned and rescanned if he had a lot of powder in his bag. He must have been really tired because he just stood there for a second thinking and then remembered the pancake mix and said, "Oh, yeah, I have pancake mix in there." Good thing it wasn't syrup because it wouldn't have fit into the little baggie required for liquids. All of the American goodies made it home safely. We'll be making batches and more batches of chocolate chip cookies until we're tired of them...could that really happen? I doubt it.
