Cookies in the mail II









Dipped in milk for 6 to 10 seconds, this butter sandwich filled with semi-sweet fudge cookie is heaven to my midnight palate.
I came home last Monday to find an unexpected package at my doorstep. It didn't say where it originated. I couldn't distinguish the handwriting plus my maiden name was spelled wrong. I eagerly opened it, and there encased in the exactly measured cardboard box - an item wrapped in Christmas paper. Before I could even rip the wrap off, I noticed a picture taped on top of this mystery gift. Without any greeting or appending card, this symbolic signature came immediately familiar to me.

My monkey still knows how to be centered around his flower's aroma.... and palate.
