shadowkat1. How do you insert images into a post without using photobucket? I tried using flicker and it did not work. The only thing that worked is photobucket and apparently I can't use that any longer.
2. Is there a British version of an American Biscuit and what is it called? Note the American version of a British Biscuit is called a cookie and the reason we call it a cookie, is well, because our biscuit isn't a cookie.
I was pondering this while watching the Great British Bake-Off...in which they were doing savory biscuits and I thought, I don't like those..then realized their idea of a biscuit is not what I'm thinking of at all.
I have a craving for bread, but can't eat bread...I blame the Great British Bake-Off. Going to try an almond flax roll.

Date: 2017-08-07 03:05 pm (UTC)Had a very interesting conversation with somebody on Reddit about this. He knew that chocolate chip cookies are cookies, but somehow he had trouble wrapping his head around the concept that in America, it's all cookies, even if they don't have chocolate chips. Three or four rounds of "but how can it be a cookie if it doesn't have chocolate chips in?" and he still wasn't getting it.

Were you able to post photos or links to it, sometimes that helps. I'm wondering if the chocolate chip cookie is a purely American invention. Because a lot of Brits seem to think a cookie = chocolate chip cookie, not any other type of cookie. We can't call them biscuits like the Brits do...because we see the Southern Biscuit.

Which Nestle had obtained the copyright/patent to and was exclusive to Nestle as a brand. Although that doesn't stop people from improving and playing with it. LOL!
