Cookies Torture

[mamadeb]

One of our subcontracters sent over a tray piled high with Italian cookies. It's sitting right next to my desk and looks and smells *delicious.*

And they're full of sugar and not kosher, so doubly forbidden.

There's still the sugar thing. I am taking diabetes meds.

(And minor point - hamentaschen are specific for Purim. I know they're sold all year round, but that's Wrong. The pastry for Chanukah are sufganiyot, or Israeli jelly donuts. Which I don't especially like because there's too low a jelly/donut ratio for someone brought up on American donuts. Which is why many people just head for the nearest kosher Dunkin Donuts instead.)
