Day before yesterday, mom made 4 dozen Oatmeal Rasin Cookies.

The cookies were placed in a bucket, in the middle of a kitchen, in a 3 person house hold. 1 of the 3 people works in town all day during the week. 1 of the 3 people can't eat the cookies because they have gluten in them. And the last (most handsomest) person of the 3 made the observation that there was only 9 cookies left in the bucket, when they went for another one.

One of the people in the house hold wants to know, where did all the cookies go?

Having "went for another one" tells me the handsomest person in the household lost track of just how many that person had really consumed ~

Might take her a few tomorrow though, I will pack some to go in my lunch pail, but, whether or not they make it to lunch time when I see her might be the issue!!!

There is nothing more dissapointing than reaching for a chocolate chip cookie and coming up with a raisin cookie. That sort of thing is why I have trust issues.

She made them the day before yesterday (Sunday). One person works weekdays, he had the rest of Sunday to work on the cookies, not to mention the handsome guy. It's a wonder ANY cookies were left (if they actually like raisin cookies- they'd last a long time around me).

Those cookies didn't go here...around here that equation would be flipped(30 or more left). I aint kidding either. Made Christmas cookies more then once, had to dump some out from the previous year. I made 8 or 9 pies for Christmas this year, NOT A PIECE was eaten at dinner(nor for the next 2 days). Not only Christmas time: 9x16 cake lasts a week and half till it get to hard to eat, pies sometimes half of it goes green(and therefore tossed), cookies 2 doz month or better.
