Culinary Exploits

Daniel called while I was out the other day:
"Mom, I want to make something."
"Well, what do you want to make?"
"It's my own recipe. Listen, one egg, one cup flour, 1/4 cup Hershey's chocolate syrup or cocoa mix, 2 cups of oats and 1/2 cup of sugar. Do you think it will taste good?"
"Yeah, maybe it would taste good. Well, it sounds like it could be cookies. Just wait till I get home and we can work on it together, OK?"

So here it is,
