Time to Bake a Batch of Cookies ~ The Biggest Loser is on Tonight!  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)   ranked 8 out of 447 in cookies 3 years ago

For some reason whenever "The Biggest Loser" is on television I want to bake. Tonight it is cookies. Hubby mentioned that he would like some cookies. Because I am too frugal to buy cookies I bake them. Also the flavor is better too and you decide what you want to put in them.

So, I am outta here for now. Time for "The Biggest Loser", aka my inspiration to bake.

That is funny, i tend to like to bake when i'm watching biggest loser too. But I have started changing some of the things I bake. Like i now make cookies out of the diabetic cookbook. Less sugar, and less calories. i also either work out or fold clothes during the commercials. I DVR the show though because i rarely have time to sit in front of the tv. Plus it gives me more time to prepare for the goodies i want to make. I have an awesome recipe for chocolate cookies :) yumm!!

Kind of having the opposite affect, isn't it? lol

Home baked cookies do taste better but for that reason alone, they don't last very long. I would say a batch of cookies will last in this house of 4 from 24-48 hours tops. They just get gobbled up.

When my kids and grandchildren come over for a visit I like to have homemade goodies for them.

Now that's funny! I've never heard of anyone being inspired to bake when The Biggest Looser is on. Those poor people have to literally starve themselves almost and then do all this activity.. I hate when they get tempted with some gigantic meal and desserts and they have to choose to stay on track or give into the binge... if they give in it always shows on the scales.

Oh great, now I want homemade cookies. It got cold again today and cookies sound like a good way to warm up the house. But of course, I am out of flour. Maybe you could send me some.LOL

I love home made cookies. Store bought just do not compare. It is funny that you want to bake because of Biggest Loser. My sister in law wants to make spaghetti when we visit, because my husband cannot even stand to smell the pasta cooking.

Thats funny, is a good thing they can't see in your tv. That would be heartbreaking to them, to see you eating homemade cookies. What kind of cookies did you end up making? Fresh homemade cookies sound good, I just might have to get out in that kitchen and rattle some pots and pans.

When I watch the Biggest Loser I want to eat. Especially since they had that temptation challenge and there were donuts and cupcakes. I often find myself munching on anything I can find when the show is on. If Bob and Jillian only knew!
