Not my favorite thing in the world, but I was out of all the important things in life; bread, milk and cereal. I was &#8220;happily&#8221; shopping along when I decided to scoot down the cookie aisle to see if they had the low fat\/cal\/whatever Lorna Doone cookies. For some unknown reason, I&#8217;ve been craving shortbread cookies and since I&#8217;d had a crummilicious day, I thought I&#8217;d earned them.<\/p>\n<p>Now&#8230;imagine my shock and horror as I&#8217;m walking past the Archway cookies section and I see a sign that says something like &#8220;Archway cookies has gone out of business. Cookies will be available only until we run out of stock.&#8221; I was dumfounded.  I just stood there and stared at the shelf.  Then, for old times sake, I picked up a package of windmill cookies.  I would have gotten some raspberry ones, but they didn&#8217;t have any. If by any chance they have more windmill and maybe some diet gingersnaps, I may pick those up in next week&#8217;s shopping.<\/p>\n<p>Another childhood memory come to an end&#8230;I&#8217;m sorry to see you go, Archway!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/?action=view%C2%A4t=Name2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/Name2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Photobucket\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, like a good girl, I went grocery shopping yesterday.
