Freshman 15

When I was a student at The University of Texas, we had a cookie delivery service called Tiff's Treats (All Austin and Dallas readers, order some NOW) Late night studying, birthdays, or simply because it was Tuesday afternoon were all reasons to send or receive warm cookies delivered to your dorm room. When I walked across the graduation stage, I thought I was walking away from the glorious concept of cookie delivery. Gracias a Dios, I was wrong. Turns out some fine folks in Pennsylvania had the same great idea, and expanded it to NYU.

I present Insomnia Cookies

I can now eat and feel like a college student all over again with these freshly baked, warm, gooey, delicious cookies delivered any hour of the day or night. Not only that, but after opening their retail shop (pictured below) at 50 W. 8th St., near Macdougal St., you can burn calories walking there.

WARM COOKIES. DELIVERED. LATE NITE.

Cookie flavors range from the basic for $1.00 each (sugar, peanut butter, chocolate chunk, M&M, snickerdoodle, oatmeal raisin, white chocolate macadamia) to deluxe for $2.25 each (TRIPLE chocolate chunk, peanut butter chocolate, and smore's). Or, if you want to get really aggressive, you can order the "Menage a Trois" - your choice of any three flavors baked

TOGETHER. IN ONE. COOKIE.

So whether you're staying warm on your couch, welcoming someone to the neighborhood, walking home at 3 a.m. from Village Tavern, or because it's simply Tuesday afternoon, send and treat yourself to Insomnia Cookies - and order a chocolate chunk for me!
