I had a Yogi Berra moment.

I made chocolate chip cookies the other day.

The recipe led me to believe that I would have 60 cookies when I was done.

Now, I know enough about cooking to be certain I had the ingredients
properly proportioned.

I have a thermometer that I purchased to monitor the temperature
of the oven.

I timed the baking of each cookie pan full.

I only had 42 cookies when I was done.

So, if I eat all 42 cookies, I consumed 70% of the total of 60 cookies.

1. My dear Ptah!

Huh?

What are you talking about?

Methinks you probably made each cookie just a tiny bit too big...

I'm sure they're still yummy!

:hug:

2. It is a take off of one of Yogi Berra's famous sayings.

"You better cut the pizza in four pieces because
I'm not hungry enough to eat six."
