Happiness is a Bushel of Cookies

A few months ago I participated in this contest for Strawberry Milano Cookies. Write a short explanation of my "Milano moment" when and how I enjoy eating cookies.

Mine was something to the effect of: "My Milano Moment....at night. When everyone else is asleep. Cuddled up in a blanket with a warm drink and a book. Then I break out the Milanos. It is a relaxing time. And because everyone else is asleep I can eat as many as I want!"

This was an easy thing for me to think of, because as you all know, I love eating cookies. I got an email from them telling me that I was one of the winners and should be expecting a bushel of cookies. A bushel! How random is that? It was the big joke at my house for weeks. A bushel of cookies was coming......

Last week I checked the mail and found this:

I opened it up, and saw this:

Just to give you some insight into my mind:

Happiness is a bushel of cookies....and I am one happy woman!

  23. So. Cookies. That I can't have. Because I'm on the Diet. So, I'm typing this comment with my eyes closed. I'm amazed by my self-discipline as well as my ability to type flawlessly with my eyes closed. I should go on Letterman.
