Cookies and Bagels
I did some baking this weekend. Before we went to the beach I tried out a chocolate chip cookie recipe that featured ground up oatmeal to form a sort of oat flour in addition to regular flour. What a wonderful recipe.. thank you shakerpenguin from the Goons With Spoons forum on Something Awful! The cookies are fat, soft, and have a wonderful touch of cinnamon. I made huge ones and they were so dense and filling that after dinner, we'd take one cookie and pass it around the table as a communal dessert. I felt it was time to make the cookies again, this time around a bit smaller.
Then I tried a hand at making bagels for the first time. It was pretty successful though the bagels were a bit flat.. I was aiming to make smaller bagels but ended up shaping them a little too large.

The bagels look great. What recipe did you use?
Sorry this reply is so late. I used Peter Reinhart's recipe in The Bread Baker's Apprentice. I've been doing a number of recipes from his book ths summer and they are a great introduction to bread making.
