Damn Fine Cookie



I don't know who is in charge of product ordering at my neighborhood HEB but they deserve a raise. This weekend I bought a box of cookies for the office. No, I did not allow myself to be pressured by 9 year olds hawking Girl Scout cookies in front of the entrance. Instead, I fell for the low price and exotic appearance of Anna's Ginger Thins, the delicately crisp ginger cookie produced by a Swedish bakery in Canada. Every one who's tried one agrees, this is one damn fine cookie. I like ginger snaps but some brands are baked so hard you nearly break a tooth eating one. These thins are the perfect texture. Why don't you grab a box and a cup of coffee and try one yourself?

These are one of my most favorite cookies! I can't get them in our regular grocery store, though, only at World Market. There are a few other kinds of them besides the ginger cookies but the ginger ones are best. Here's wishing you a plate full of ginger cookies and a tall glass of cold milk!
