A friend is writing a book called Cookie: A Cultural History and is seeking personal stories about cookies. Anything - baking with grandma, stealing dough from mom, burning them, fortune cookie fortunes that meant something, how you eat your Oreos, your favorite cookie, why you love them, what they mean to you, how you shared them with friends - anything.

Please email stories to brette@brettesember.com with "cookie story" in the subj line.

Thanks!
