Farewell, Mother
October 17th, 2008 by timbotron
Last Monday, October 13th, “Mother” of Mother’s Cookies was found dead in her home - she died at 92 years of age.
Although she appears to have died of natural causes, authorities have not ruled out foul play: Stella d’Oro and several Keebler Elves have been taken into custody for questioning.
The distraught company, Mother’s Cookies, has closed its doors, never to open them again.
Farewell Iced Oatmeal.
Farewell Taffy.
And farewell Circus Animals. . . I loved you most of all.
Frosted Bonus Round: News of the closing of Mother’s has caused a panicky hoarding at grocery stores in my neighborhood - the last bags of “Circus Animals” are already gone from the shelves, bought-up by grieving shoppers.
