Mother's Circus Animal Cookies

A couple weeks ago my sister heard that Mother's Cookies was going out of business, I just couldn't believe it. Mother's, they have been around forever! Everyone loves those pink and white animal cookies, such a classic kid treat! So on my last trip to Harmons I asked and got confirmation from the manager that they are going out of business, and that the cookies that were on the shelf were the last they were going to have. So I decided there was only one thing I could do, buy some. Then eat them, and of course take pictures to remember them by.






Now I'm just wishing I would have grabbed a bag of the regular ones. The Holiday ones are fun, but just not the same. I just love those pink and white cookies. So sad. Glad the kids enjoyed them one last time.

I am so sad that Mother's is going out of business! Those pink and white circus cookies are, or I guess it would be more appropriate to say 'were' a guilty pleasure of mine, not to mention all the good memories they brought back from when I was little.

Oh man! Seriously. I didn't buy them very often, but how sad. Guess I will have to make more homemade cookies so my kids can have memories of "mothers" cookies. LOL just being dorky!

I can't believe how big Madi has gotten!! She has turned into such a BEAUTIFUL little girl... no more babies at your house. I'm going to have to check for some cookies too... I hope there are some left when I get to the store. So sad.

Oh no, I love those! In fact, I ate them like they were going out of business when I was prego! Those little pink and white cookies are the best! I'm sad, and tomorrow, I will have to go by some as well!

I have a friend that is addicted to these! I don't know what she is going to do! I don't think I can even tell her...

That really is so sad. I'm going to miss that waxy film on the roof of my mouth. I seriously have loved those my whole life. Have a great day!

Well who do they think they are going out of business like that? Those are the best. I love those cookies. They remind me of my Grandma. She always had them at her house. Can't they just score some of the bailout money to stay in business?

That is strange! Once I ate one I couldn't stop. Yummy! It is so sad!
