Ugh, knowing what 'ordinary moods' look like is an impossibility I think even for those of us whose brain chemistry isn't fucking us over.
I'm going through the writerly syndrome of "Oh, if I just find the perfect space, or the perfect time, etc. I can write such great things! but not now!" and I need to get out of it. I can make my surroundings better, but I shouldn't keep myself from writing because of them.
Just... dedication is hard for me. A lot of the values instilled in me by adults I admired emphasized hard work and dedication of lots of time. Part of me does and doesn't want to spend all of that time and hard work, it's intimidating. I'm slowly working on my motivation and determination/dedication but it's an uphill battle AKA: really frikkin' hard.
I eat the cookie spread on one slice of bread with the other slice of bread not spread with it into a sandwich is perfect. I can't really eat it plain, I can sample it in small doses but it gets overwhelming and actually gross if I have too much of it. It's like my system gets overwhelmed by the flavor/sweetness and starts to be like, hey, this stuff is gross. We need to stop eating this. XD I would try shortbread-butter cookies with your cookie-all-the-way-through recipe. And just a really thin layer of the spread. Of course it all depends on how you like it and how much your body can handle. My sweet tooth certainly isn't gonna look sideways at someone else. :D
