Sitting on the counter,
waiting for his dinner
to warm up.
Cookies here
still warm
from the oven.
Eyes widen and
he jumps off the counter.
Within seconds,
one cookie is gone
another in his hand.
Can I eat all of them?
Yeah,
they’re yours.
Trying to hide
my happiness,
my relief,
my gratitude that
this
is where we are right now.
Can we have cookies
again tomorrow?
he questions.
No doubts.
No second thoughts.
Of course.

Thank you for sharing this with us! 🙂
What kind of cookies were they?
Yeah – I made cookies for the first time in a year yesterday. I need to make sure to purchase more butter – I had to substitute with applesauce and they definitely weren’t the same!
What an eye opening article you linked. I hadn’t considered that challenge. So many challenges are being brought forth by the Coronavirus! Thank you for sharing.
I read this with the smell of freshly-baked brownies coming from the kitchen. =)
Baking is how I release my creativity, and how I make friends. =))
