cookie-Gren-0608Dear Suzanne ~
 
We received your cookies today, I almost knocked the UPS man over to get them. I could smell them right through the box! I had to hide them first, because I read where someone's husband got to them first and that was not happening here! Then I remembered that we were fresh out of milk, so I had to make a trip to the grocery store to make sure I was well prepared for our special dessert. I told the kids that I won the cookies, they were very impressed. I told them how you like to eat your cookies (in a cereal bowl of milk) and in honor of you we did the same. So here are our pictures dunking the cookies into bowls filled with milk and drinking the leftover milk from the bowl. The kids thought that was great! We may have a new tradition in our house. They tasted even better than I had imagined! And your mom's oatmeal cookies, oh my, were they good! Thanks for baking with love, we tasted every bit of it. Sending love right back, The Grenier Family

Dear Suzanne
The photo is of our staff enjoying the cookies you sent. I can't begin to tell how excited I was when I got the email that I'd won, and how often I explained to our director what a nice service Dear Reader is. We all enjoyed the cookies! I am the one in the all red shirt. And you can tell it's the day after the Detroit Red Wings won the Stanley Cup by looking at Heather's jersey. Our library is about 30 miles north of Joe Louis Arena where the Red Wings play so we are definitely fans here. Thank you again for choosing me. I enjoy the bookclub.

Dear Suzanne

“Cookie Day will go down in history as one of our happiest events! We are busy putting up a large poster titled, HOW DO YOU DUNK YOUR COOKIES? And we’re including some past cookie winner photos and a picture of Suzanne pulling the cookies out of the oven. We want to make sure everyone knows what’s coming so we can let Suzanne know how “we dunk our cookies!” This is really going to be fun!


Myra Dennis is a retired teacher who works 10 hours a week as a homework helper in Long Beach, California at the Mark Twain Branch Library. She entered the Chocolate Chip Cookie Giveaway so she could share the cookies with everyone at the library.

Hi Suzanne,
So sorry our pictures have taken so long to get to you. My friend Trish was on vacation in Florida the week the cookies came and the day she came home I was in a bad auto accident that totaled my car and left me in a whole lot of pain and out of commission for a couple weeks. We have been trying to get together this last week, but I can't seem to get things straight. First I went to Trish's house and forgot the cookies (left them sitting on my dining room table), then I went to where Trish works and forgot the camera. Soooo today I went back to see Trish at work and remembered both the camera and the cookies! Thank goodness your cookies freeze well!! Thank you again for choosing me and the cookies are in their final resting place (our tummies). Trish is on the left and I'm on the right. -- Tracy Howe
