I finally got around to updating this quadruple chip cookies recipe, originally published on January 4, 2010. I thought about rewriting the whole thing since the divorce was so long ago but I decided to keep it as written. This blog is a collection of recipes but it is also a journal of my life over the past several years. I hope it will help someone.

Feel free to skip it and go straight to the recipe.

January 2010

This holiday season was so wild for me. It was a difficult adjustment both financially and emotionally. There have been so many changes over the past weeks that I feel as if I had been thrown in the spin cycle on a washing machine that was being transported to another planet.

With the separation behind me and the finalization of the divorce looming in front of me I am kind of a wreck. I never thought I would be divorced. Marriage is forever, right?

In any case, I didn't make many Christmas cookies, or even do much Christmas baking. I just tried to keep everything as normal as possible for the kids. That would become my mantra, if I had a mantra..which I don't. Keep it normal.

It is a funny  thing... going through a divorce. People that you expected you could count on to love you no matter what become strangers and those that you thought you had a marginal relationship with support you in surprising ways. Being lonely becomes a lifestyle, and trust issues, which I have dealt with all of my life have become magnified.

Who do you trust when the people you have trusted most fail you? Jesus Christ, for me... of course... but that human support everyone needs - where does that come from? I don't know. I am not saying that if you disagree with what someone is doing you should pretend you agree. But I am wondering what happened to "I don't like what you are doing but I am standing with you and praying for you ... and I am here for you." Are there people like that in your life?

Anyway, New Years Eve needed something festive so I made these chocolate chip cookies. Quick, easy, and several kinds of chocolate. You can't beat that, right? The cookies are buttery and chewy with butterscotch chips, milk chocolate chips, bittersweet chips, white chocolate chips, and pecans.

That's the end of the 2010 part of the post. The fact remains that divorce happens unexpectedly sometimes. Sometimes you've been seeing it coming for awhile. Either way, it's a painful, hurtful, confusing time but it does pass. When I wrote those words I never imagined I'd ever go to France, or on cruises, or have a hot tub to relax in. I never imagined anyone would ever want me. I thought my life was over and if it hadn't been for the fact that I had kids at home I believe I would have considered suicide -- as it was the thought went through my head more than once. If you're reading this and you're in the midst of a tough time just know that it will pass. Life will go on. Things will work out. Killing yourself is never the answer and no matter how you feel right now things are going to get better. If you need to talk you can message me privately on the Restless Chipotle Facebook page and I promise I will answer. I 've been there and I know how it feels.

I don't know what I would do without my silicone baking mats! They keep cookies from sticking and help keep the bottoms from scorching. You'll also want a good, heavy baking sheet. I'm a fan of Nordic Ware and this heavy baking sheet is definitely a keeper.

    I felt this. I’m so glad you found a way back to the light. It’s by far the hardest journey any human being can undertake. I’ve noticed you’ve been including more budget friendly meal ideas too. I bet much appreciate that. XXOO

    What a heartfelt post, so raw and real. I love your honesty and openness. I hope life is better than it was back then when the original post went up. You deserve happiness. Much love from someone who has been through some ups and downs in life. It's a messy thing, but so worthwhile. xx

    It seems odd to comment on cookies after that, but I will because they are stellar and gorgeous. Wish I had a batch right now.

    Hugs from Canada. xx

    The chocolate chip recipe is wonderful, but even better is reading how far you've come in just a few years and how different (and better) the world looks to you now. Amazing to think that time heals when you're going through tough times - but it does. And your inspiring comments will anyone who reads them while in their own tough time.
