Two stollens passed through my doors over the holidays. I prefer them to dry flavorless cookies.

i have been guilty of biting the chocolate covered ends off of these cookies and then tossing the rest.

No, we don't know that but you hold on tight to your stereotypes if it makes you feel better. I guess the boomers I know actually have taste.

My mother was not a Latina (tho her DNA did turn up 3% Iberian and her ancestors came here from Holland with a Spanish last name, lol) but we sewed when we were kids, and she had one of those tins full of buttons.

I think it was a tea-bag tin, though. My mother baked, so we rarely had store-bought cookies.

the boomer stuff is a direct result of all the anti-millennial and anti-youth stereotyping. people think that they can just attack an entire generation of people (and i bet most think its ok because they "are right") but its not ok for it to be done back to them.
