Entry 7: Cookie Monster

Latest development in the "War Against Yogurt, Enduring Dannon", campaign…

Today D.M. slurps down her usual lunch in record time and pulls out a Dannon Light Cappucino Yogurt.

I ask, "Hey D.M., where do you keep all the labels that you have to save for the fleece and bookbag?"

"I just throw them in the big cookie jar in the kitchen."

"But D.M., where do you put the cookies then?"

"The cookies usually don't make it to the jar, I keep those on my nightstand."

"You keep the cookies in your room?"

"Well the cookie jar doesn't fit on my nightstand."

"Why do the cookies have to be in your room? Don't they keep better in the fridge or a cabinet of some sort?"

"I keep some of the cookies in the fridge in my room, but others do just fine on the nightstand."

"So there are cookies all over the place then?"

"No, just in my room, if I keep them down in the main fridge I'll forget they are there and buy new ones, then I'd have cookies everywhere."

"So there is a method to your madness then, I understand now."

"Plus I don't have any room for cookies downstairs, that fridge is for the yogurt."

(I get up and leave)
