Madeleines

So, Goof calls me today to ask me if I'm depressed. No, I'm just irritated by you. What do I do when I'm irritated? I bake. But I didn't have all the ingredients to make the really fattening stuff, so I made my favorites, madeleines. Today, I felt like experimenting a bit. I chopped up some mint I bought and threw that in the batter. I don't think I put enough in. Perhaps, I just needed a touch of extract in it so there wouldn't be so much green bits.

oooo, they look yummy! How do they taste with a touch of mint?

Just a tiny hint of mint flavoring. It was quite nice. I think I'll put a little more next time too. Sweet, but felt cool at the same time with the mint. I also made a pitcher of Earl Grey and fresh mint sweet tea along with it. Not many left.
