Did you know that May 15, 2014 is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day? It is and I am hard pressed to think of a more delicious holiday. As many of you know, I am gluten free but that doesn’t prevent me from eating way to many chocolate chip cookies! They just happen to be my Delectable Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe!

And what would any holiday be with out me nerding it up a little bit? I found this great activity you can do with your kids to teach  them all about mining with chocolate chip cookies. You just need some common kitchen items and chocolate chip cookies!

And lets not forget the invention of chocolate chip cookies by Ruth Graves Wakefield. I found a great little piece that talks about the happy accident that resulted in the creation of everyone’s favorite cookie. I think it is a great lesson to kids. We have to try. Even if we fail we may succeed as something new!

For all you gluten eaters (like my kids;), Mrs Fields is running a geeky chocolate chip cookie special..

They have Angry Birds cookie cakes and Angry Birds cookies & milk boxes just in time for National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day. And during May 15th-20th, there is a 20% off coupon these and any of their treats on their site. Use code NCCCD to get the discount!

Now, if you will excuse me. I have to make some cookies!
