Wednesday night I made a double batch of chocolate chip cookies, and brought them with me to school on Thursday.

Baked goods have a strange socializing ability. They spark conversation. Questions, comments, anecdotes, and eating. They’re pretty much the ultimate ice breaker.

Last night I made a(nother) cheesecake, and brought it to school to share. I feel like I’ve stumbled upon something. Now I just need to figure out how to go forward with it.

…I’m thinking lemon bars.
