President Clinton's presidential library opened Monday, the public would finally
have the chance to enjoy the chocolate chip cookies his wife didn't stay home to
make.

18, 2004, in Little Rock, Ark. [AP] | The
cookies come from the same recipe Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is now a New York
senator, rolled out after making much-reviled comments on her lack of domestic
skills during Bill Clinton's first run for the White House in 1992.
"I've done the best I can to lead my life," Hillary said about her
high-powered lifestyle in an interview at the time. "I suppose I could have
stayed home and baked cookies and had teas."
The comment caused Republicans and others to complain that she was belittling
stay-at-home moms. She ended up baking her chocolate chip cookies as an apology
of sorts.
The recipe was also included in the Clinton Center Cookbook, which was sold
last year to help raise money for the US$165 million library construction
project.
