I loved those for cookies. The sweet memory of eating those cookies as a young child. After that, gramma kept the container but used it for odds and ends (not sewing supplies). I was always disappointed seeing it and knowing there were no cookies inside. They never got any more of those cookies after I was little for some reason.

#Not that they lacked any other kind of junk food #At home we never had any junk food #Rarely cookies unless baked at home #Or those free boxes of leftover misc donuts we got occasionally #From church or food pantry or sth #At grammas tho!#We had ice cream daily #We could dig in the fridge or cupboard for chips or ice cream bars #I think grsmma may have tried to limit #No snacks before supper #But compared to home.#And then grammas home cooked meals!#In season food #If it was corn season we'd have corn for lunch and supoer #Raspberry season we'd have raspberry shortcake lunch and supper dessert #Gramma didn't sew tho #Only person I remember doing any fabric stuff was great gramma who would knit or sth #Mom sewed some but #She was trying to be a stay at home mom but that didn't work out bc #Well she stayed at home but had to work #Worked from home and homeschooled #Dad was often out of work broken down and depressed #Mom only knew like basics of sewing #I mean. Not all women have ro know this. Maybe another skill ...#That they like #I like baking not cooking #I do kind of want to see catnip toys tho..#I sewed 1 thing during 4H and them my instructor helped #Went to the fair tho
