"It's like a hanky code but with baked goods".

  1. I would totally flag tiramisu. Or blueberry pie, depending on my mood.

  2. I would not put challah in my back-left pocket. Nor a jelly donut.

  3. Do un-baked goods count, because I'd totally flag cookie dough. ;)

  4. Jennifer Koerber the actual hanky code includes a couple of non-hanky items for fringe activities so I suppose we can allow cookie dough.  Just try not to sub-split it into different flavors of cookie dough because then you'd have to paw around in the pocket to figure out what type it is and-- ah yes, that would be what someone flagging cookie dough would want.  Carry on!

  5. Jennifer Koerber This was my reply. I can't think of a baked good that's not better before the oven step.

    Cookie dough is the first example, of course, but I frequently make cakes and brownies for my family just so I can lick the bowl.

    Also, store bought bread doughs make me very happy before and after the oven step.

    This flag feels less and less like it could be indicated by any hanky.

    I'm thinking a mixing bowl turned into an umbrella by using a spatula for a handle....

    But that fails the plausible deniability of the hanky concept.
