Because both of us are such biscuit lovers, we decided to > try the 'Neiman-Marcus cookie'. It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe.

She replied, 'I wish you wouldn't do that.' I said,'Well, perhaps you should have thought of that before you RIPPED ME OFF!' and slammed down the phone. > > So here it is!
