So, you know those days that happen to you when NOTHING seems to go right? Well, I was having one of those day. Was, is of course the key word there. I had made plans, but they ended up falling through, I couldn't take my bike anywhere because it was rainy, and my usual playmate when these things happen (aka my mom) is off playing with....well, she has friends and I don't.

So, I was feeling pretty down (not even my cats wanted to hang around!) when I decided, hey, I'm depressed, I'll eat a cookie! So I opened up our little plastic cookie container of Voortman cookies (remember those?) and prepare to grab a kinda-bad, not really that great chocolate chip cookie. Suddenly, underneath it, I spot something that just absolutely made my day. A Gingerbread Man Cookie. I thought that they had all been eaten last week, and yet, lo and behold, there one is, staring up and smiling at me, just trying to make my rainy day better.

Thank God for cookies. They're there when no one else is. Especially the Gingerbread ones.
