I admit that I do product testing fairly often. But no one paid me to buy these, and no one will pay me to eat the entire package all by myself. But I'll do it anyway.

This is a partially-eaten Cinnamon Bun Oreo. I bought them on a whim at Target this morning, and was not disappointed. Seriously, go buy some. If you like them, sweet. If you don't, bring them to my house and I'll dispose of them for you at no charge.

But why am I talking about cookies here? It's easy, really. Like I've mentioned, this time of the year is deeply challenging for me, so when I find something that makes me smile or gets me excited, it makes me happy. And those little jolts of happiness are hearty, Costco-sized blessings.
