The union sometimes gives out food packages to random members, and we got the big package one year. A small version of this was in there and I was delighted!

And when we were done it immediately appeared in my sewing room like magic!

You can still get them!

Maybe you, I can buy cookies for about 5 minutes after my paycheck clears

You're 100% correct that they suck.

These cookies are like the shittiest cookies you'd serve to someone in Denmark. They're for when you have to put something on the table but kind of don't want to, so you go for the cheap and easy option.

Baking them yourself is better, but they're still bland and boring.

You gotta have Royal Dansk.

They are the good ones.

The knockoff ones are always shitty.

I never had any in my childhood, mom told me they were terrible and she only bought them for a box. Now last week a few decades later, one of them has caught my eye in a store so I immediately bought some. Man, my mom was absolutely right, that goddamned box has managed to disappoint me twice...

I'm really tempted to ban you...

But seriously we can all have opinions. If you ever happen to be given these though let me know and I'll send you an address to ship them to

I'd give anything to be a sugar baby to someone who'd regularly supply me with Royal Dansk.

If I am making butterscotch should I also pour in some scotch?

If you happen to have bread, you can spread the butter on a slice, cover the top with sugar, and use a cookie cutter to make "instant cookies" for your dolly tea party. Just be sure to eat the scraps, and eat the cookies for the dollies because they can't. Mustn't waste food!

This is a cool idea and I think it will be my daughter's new favorite thing!

Just like crocodiles. Back from the days before time, when there was no plastic to package the things, and this one dinosaur lives on to remind us of the possibilities we had.

Put your random sockets and screwdriver bits in those tins. My auntie was impressed at the amount of organization.
