cookies, sugar, marmots

I baked chocolate chip cookie bars tonight, yay! With regular flour, and they turned out good. Yum.

Yesterday I tried out a recipe I found for a chocolate mug cake using green plantain flour. It turned out bitter and not sweet. I suppose I'll still eat it, but I hope the other recipes I found mask the bitterness better. I thought I'd read somewhere that plantain flour is bitter when tasted raw, but not after cooking/baking.

I emailed an organic sugar company to request them to consider selling their product in paper packaging like normal sugar, instead of in plastic bags and plastic jugs.
