say it isn't so


There are just certain products that you can look at and they just bring back childhood memories. I also have certain smells that I come across and can't always put my finger on what the smell is but it brings back my childhood.


As I was watching the news this morning I was stunned by the end of one of my favorite childhood memories and the feeling that I needed to run to the store and buy everything in stock.







These goodies are a favorite of mine. It is a cookie that was introduced to me by my dad. He would buy them and then dunk them in milk. They have become one of my most favorite cookies and I feel bad that when I buy them I hide them from my kids instead of sharing and passing down this family treat. Only that my kids do find them because they are always half gone when I go to get one.

The problem here is that this morning I heard that Mother's cookies are out of business. They have shut their door. Kit, put, kapoooeeee, GONE!

I really, really hope that someone helps them out and they open up because I can't imagine walking down the cookie isle without seeing all the yummy cookies they sell.

I am going to go sulk and buy out the store now!

Aww, that's sad, both for them and you! Now you will have to ration them out. Do the math, see how many you need to last for the next 40 years. Maybe even build a little shed to house them.

Wow, that is a shocker. And Laurie, ew. I am imagining cardboard cookies being rationed out in the last days to our ward members our of the Harris's shed.

Don't worry I'm sure the government...er... you and I...will bail them out!

You can freeze them...buy as many as you can and freeze them...they'll last forever! It can totally be rationalized as food storage! Sorry, that is a sad story.

I can't believe they are going out of business. I love the iced oatmeal and the frosted animal cookies. going to add those to my grocery list for this weekend.

Wow, another blow to our economy and our stomachs. Dad will be very sad this was part of gift giving to him. Now what shall we do?

Ick - not good news at ALL!!! Maybe I will be making a trip to the store this week. How can my children grow up without knowing about these amazing cookies!
