Today marks the beginning of my Wednesday courses in Donostia's new favorite place to line up, The Loaf.

Today's course is on the FAMOUS chocolate chip cookies, the one thing in the whole world guaranteed to bring a smile to everyone's face, be they old or young, Basque or Spanish, human or canine.

It's sold out.

But there will be more to follow, so if you're interested I suggest checking out the wide variety of courses available over at the website.

Happy 4th of July! I'm doin' my best to represent over here in Basque Country (i.e. making and consuming mass quantities of cookies). USA!
