So, I decided to get some Danish butter cookies and candy canes for the nurses in the clinic and on some of my more loved floors of the hospital. Danish butter cookies are a bit of a family tradition. My mom would buy them every year around Christmas, and we all had our favorite shapes. I personally swear by the pretzel shape.
Anyway, we'd go to the store, or sometimes we'd go to Macy's and get them. And it came in a metal tin and we'd carefully eat one or two, trying to savor the enjoyment.
And so, I went shopping on Sunday practically everywhere. I went to 3 supermarkets, 2 specialty food stores, and finally, I found myself at Wal-Mart, the most evil store in America. Wal-Mart has single-handedly destroyed small business, got all of America buying everything in excess, and doing their best to ruin everything wonderful about this country.
And of course, Wal-Mart had the cookies, for $2 a tin. They're cheap quality, disappointing, and another precious memory from childhood ruined. Thanks for nothing, Wal-Mart. Of course, I bought 4 tins.
My favorites are the C shaped ones!
