It's difficult to write a sexual fantasy on a morning metro train to work. The surroundings are anything but exciting, gray cold faces staring indifferently into gray cold walls of the carriage. The day spreads itself lustlessly ahead - it will be long and tiresome and gray as well, the loveliness of the autumn is long gone and the freshness of the winter is still weeks away. On days like today being warm and cosy is vital to keep the spirits.
I slowly re-read a short note I'm holding, it feels like sipping hot chocolate, the words warming me inside and making me smile. I can feel the virtual caress on my skin, the tingling of anticipation spreads all over my body, warming up frozen finger tips.
Images run through my head, flashbacks of our encounter mingling with the things i haven't done but long to. I need to put them on hold, channel this energy before it destroys me from the inside.
It's time to bake cookies.

It's time to bake cookies.
Makes 10 cookies.
100 g butter
75 g caster sugar
75 g light brown sugar
1 large egg
175 g plain flour
1/2 t soda
1 t vanilla extract
1/4 t salt
150 g chocolate chips, cranberries, nuts, marshmallows, solo or combined.
Bring your butter to a body temperature. There are ways to do it, but i choose the most hygienic one of popping it in the microwave for 20 seconds. Add sugars and whip with a hand mixer for about 2 minutes. You don't want it too fluffy, soft and light would do. Slowly incorporate the egg, and whip for another minute. Add the flour, soda, salt and any morsels of goodness you fancy, and mix by hand. Divide the dough into equal balls, pressing it to the tray lightly. Bake for 10 minutes at 170 C, rotating the tray halfway, if the oven is uneven.
Take one still warm from the oven, inhale its buttery sweetness and enjoy a few precious moments of inner peace.
