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!

Wow!

When it was light enough to see outside, I was surprised to see that it had snowed! My farrier arrived at 8 AM and concurred that the snow was quite a shock. We’re feeling a little cheated out of our Fall trail riding season when there’s no bugs, the woods are beautiful, and it’s a…

Everything I Know I Learned From Plants (and dogs)

I am gardening on a tight budget this year. Everything planted in the pots and raised beds came from home grown seedlings, except for a few hard to grow herbs. There aren’t too many actual “flowers” in the mix. I do hope to add some alyssum later for a little bit of frill. I can’t take…

Happy Easter!

It’s almost Easter and I’ve been feeling nostalgic. My adoptive Mom was Polish and at Easter time she made a beet and horseradish relish that we called “Kassan”. I have no idea how to spell it. My Mom We had this relish on our hard-boiled eggs, kielbasa (Polish sausage), ham and whatever else we felt like…

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