Total Crisis in my Life!

Maery Rose August 12, 2009January 27, 2015

Costco has quit carrying Walkers Quadruple Chocolate Cookies! The cookies are made in Scotland but there was a website on the box so I figured, surely I can have the cookies airlifted to my home!

But no!!! Walkers website did not list the Quadruple Chocolate Cookies anywhere!

The closest cookie that I saw was the Belgian Chocolate Cookies, a far cry from QUADRUPLE chocolate cookies, which are made with Belgian while chocolate, Belgian dark chocolate, Belgian milk chocolate and to top it off have Belgian milk chocolate chunks!

I’ve been buying these things for at least eight months. They cannot do this to me!

How much pain and frustration is one human being expected to bear!

Anoka Halloween Parade

I had a different blog post in mind for today–an attempt at a soft horror story. But the piece needs more work, so instead, I have photos I took at the Anoka Halloween Parade. As usual, my skill at photographing moving targets while dodging people who step in front of me leaves much to be…

Seasickness, Riding, and Theatre

I took yesterday off from work. I’ve got some vertigo thing going and this has made me feel like one of the characters on “The Perfect Storm”. I just want to batten down the hatches. The dizziness and nausea are usually worse in the morning, so after being up for a few hours and acquiring my sea…

City Deer and Luke Rocks!

Sunday we got hit with a lovely, glistening coating of ice. A friend and I still decided to go out for breakfast. The slide out the driveway was bad enough. Then there was the treachorous walk from the car to the restaurant. (Note to self, tennis shoes are not the best thing to wear on…

Decked

I know you’ve just been holding your breath for this — news on my deck status. If you don’t remember exactly what I’m talking about, well, perhaps you should consider taking some Ginko Jiloba. Wait, that doesn’t sound right. Okay, so I can’t remember what it’s called. Anyway, here’s a refresher. The deck work started…

I think this calls for an internet petition, to bring back your beloved cookies.
