Tiff – These posts make me miss you even more. And the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree – both you and your mom are wonderful. Happy birthday to her and sending love from CT to you! Lauren

Thanks TasteFood–it’s a great recipe. They taste exactly like Oreos…except better. In my imagination, this is what they tasted like back in the day when “Mrs. Nabisco” used to make them for her grandkids, prompting them to say “Nana, these are so good, we should sell them!”

My pleasure, mom. (Seriously. I ate all the Oreos that wouldn’t fit in the tin.) Glad you liked the gift, and glad you’re not mad at me for publishing photos of you from decades gone by

Thanks Karen! Mmmm…kale smoothies and Oreos. Both good, but probably not the best combination

Well, After being blown away by such a lovely and clever tribute it’s time to weigh in on the oreo caper. First off, yes, the bar is set quite high. I am so lucky to have such a cool and fabulous daughter.Her thoughtfulness brought tears to my eyes. Then there is the constant temptation of those homemade oreos. I froze the bulk of them thinking it would slow me down, but it hasn’t. They are good frozen, good dunked in milk, they sing when dunked in dark coffee….
thanks, Tbird !

T-
What a great story, thanks for sharing. I too feed my kids kale smoothies, actually it is usually spinach. I don’t think it has occured to them that many people drink smoothies that do not contain veggies. Your cookies look tremendous. I have to try them, because I too have a thing for Oreos, though rarely indulge.
Thanks for sharing,

Karen
