love2travel, I've never (Thank God) experienced bullying at work. It wouldn't be tolerated among my co-workers in the O.R. Now the surgeons get away with it a lot (just a select few are a-holes) they would have to actually curse at us or throw something at us for them to get in trouble. I've actually had 4 surgeons in my 33 year career in the O.R. apologize to me for being nasty (one even called me at home!) What kind of work do you do that this is allowed to happen? Hope things are much better after the Meanie(s) leave!

Officially, one of the Blue Meanies that made my life miserable at work, is leaving this week!!!!!!
Ah, now things will be easier and better at work for you!
Thanks so much PaulFan11... I am still too scared to feel relief, until it happens for real, but It will be like a heavy weight lifted from my life. There is a rumor that the worst Meanie is leaving as well. It will be a whole different job, if that happens and I'm asking all my friends to say a prayer that this happens. It will lighten up my life immensely. This has affected my life drastically in every way, as if being caught in a swamp with no escape, or quicksand. I might again start enjoying more than my 5 weeks vacation in life!!! I'm praying really a lot that 6 years of misery is over. Anyone who is bullied knows what I am going through. I'm not ashamed, I've done nothing wrong... I've excelled at work and some people hate you for that!!
I am so happy to read your news of the Blue Meanie being banished! Karma is not selective to anyone on this planet. I will keep praying for you to find relief from the a$$holes in your life, and everyone's lives. Bullying is pure evil! Hang in there good people of the world!

Thinking good thoughts for you they both are leaving and things will become so much better at work for you! They both must lead very sad lives to want to treat co-workers that way, most bullies do lead very sad lives. Its a hard thing to get through and I'm glad you hopefully won't have to go through it anymore.

Thanks so much for all your well wishes. I have never had to deal with this craziness, which I did silently for years, then I was reading about a number of famous people and how they were bullied... I'm pretty sure it was Stella who had commented she had bully problems when she was younger, and she said she gave back as good as she got. Reading that actually made me think I should fight back against it all. At first it made it a LOT worse, but at least I felt empowered and had dignity over what was going on. I pray the person who is the most horrible to me, actually leaves as well. Then I think my life will drastically change back to the better. No more coming home, too emotionally tired to do anything but veg out.

Am wondering about using the mint, do you shred it finely? I just bought a peppermint plant for ice tea.
I chop it up and then pound it in a mortar & pestle. When it's all cooked, you can't see any hint of mint in the cookies, but you can definitely smell and taste it.
I'm going to try that thanks!
I also tried something else later on. After the cookie mix was chilled and rolled up, I sliced thin pieces, put a mint leaf on top and another thin slice of cookie mix on the mint, basically making a mint sandwich. When it cooks, the two slices merge together and trap the mint inside. It's extra minty without burning the fresh mint.

Buying some raisinettes from a lady yesterday as part of a fundraiser. I wished her good luck on her cause. She was very sweet and thankful.

It's a basic chocolate cookie, but it needs something extra. I used to just pour tempered chocolate on top, but the mint makes it much better.
