2008 Is Starting Off Famously

It’s been a few weeks, so let me dip my toes back into the blogging world with the best sort of not-safe-for-work cookie disaster from Garrick, who’s also working on a vegan cookie book. You know, I’m just going to post them. If your boss fires you for looking at accidentally vagina-shaped cookies then it’s not the kind of job you want anyways.

They were supposed to be Sweeney Todd cookies, as Garrick explains on the PPK forums.

“They were supposed to look like slit flesh, as in Sweeney Todd, he slits the throats of victims… I didn’t know marzipan would expand in the oven.

In other news, Terry and I will be on NPR’s Weekend Edition tomorrow morning at 8:30 in NYC. I’m not sure what time or channel for other cities. And I’ll be posting some exciting news about mineses and Terry’ses upcoming projects.

Okay, toes? Dipped.

    Of course it would be vagina cookies that would get you back to blogging.

    Regarding NPR:

    You can listen to the Weekend Edition on their website, for those of us who wouldn’t be up at 8:30 am on a Sunday morning. ;)

    Oh, this is a great first post for 2008!

    But what I want to know is whether they tasted any good!

  5. Foof Says:

    8.30 is sooooooooooo early!

  6. Sarah Says:

    You are sooooooooo dirty minded. It looks like a ,er, biscuit face with no eyes or nose, just lips.

  7. Garrick Says:

    HA! Isa you are awesome.

  8. raddish Says:

    I saw them on food porn and immediately thought “vagina!” too. Obviously. Now I want to make some.

    i want vagina cookies!!!

  10. Gwenlet Says:

    That’s brilliant! We sell vagina shaped cookies every year to fund raise for the Vagina Monologues–let’s just say, there will be a lot more variety in this year’s cookies. I cannot wait to start baking! Are red hots vegan? That thing needs a clitoris.

  11. Deb Schiff Says:

    Hilarious! Reminds me of a popular sticker: Support Vaginal Pride. :D

    here’s the link to the npr interview: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=17880728

    I didn’t see the blog post before this morning’s NPR fest, so i was pleasantly surprised! You both sounded great - really good, lovely, thoughtful, intelligent spokeswomen for veganism. Thank you!

    It’s been a good start to 2008 for veganism in general. Skinny Bitch in the Kitch was reviewed in the food section of NYT this week, too. Onwards and upwards, my vegan friends!

    what an incredible accident!

  15. robiewankenobie Says:

    you may have come on in the middle of an otherwise normal npr broadcast, yesterday while i was driving. i may have screamed with excitement. good times.

    Hey, Isa! Long time, no blog!

    Excellent way to dip your toes in. Vagina cookies are the best icebreaker.

  17. Dynah Says:

    Haha, what happened to the pic? Too graphic?? It cracked me up.

  18. Sarah Says:

    Evidentially photobucket doesn’t approve of ‘gina-shaped cookies. My roomie, on the other hand, saw the pic and instantly wanted to make them and throw a vagina-themed party.

  19. Garrick Says:

    Ha. Evidently, it’s too hot for photobucket, so I reassigned it to Tinypic and put it back up in the thread.

  20. b.a.d. Says:

    I think the other cookies were more vagina-esk, but welcome back to the blogging world!

  21. Ian Says:

    Starting off the New Year with a bang, eh?

    *ba-zing!*

  22. dafodil Says:

    I thought “VAGINA!” when I first saw these!! Someone should send some to Larry Flynt!!

  23. kookimebux Says:

    Hello. And Bye. :)

    Finally, a good site that isn’t in my face trying to constantly sell me something. Thanks, please keep up the good work.
