My
mother recalled my first spoken word … At
age 3, I finally gave voice to my dominant thought: "cookie!" Our children began talking at a much earlier
age, thank goodness, probably with more affectionate words like
"Mama" and "Dada."
But I'm different, and "cookie" has stuck with me as a keyword throughout my life.
Before the Internet and TV Food Network (launched 11/23/1993 with Robin Leach and others,) cookies were the simple, ultimate fast food – a convenient, satisfying snack, especially for kids. Extra healthy with oatmeal and raisins (my all-time favorite.) Who can forget the cookie jar!
