A Baking Injury

Three reasons for hand chopping a cup of cranberries and pecans with a paring knife:

1.  The electric minichopper did not have the chops for dried cranberries
2.  Fresh cranberries don't exist in the produce section in July, and
3.  No big sharp blade lives at the lake.
 
My left forearm aches with an overuse injury from the resistant fruit stiffies.  And now the cranberry pecan pinwheels bake up to be the least appealing cookie because of the coarse chopping.
The cherry chocolate cookies are perfect.
The chocolate chip spice cookies will not be making the trip to Colorado because they are beyond perfect.
