I assembled these today as I pined over my loss of Oreos. A six-day battle with the Demon Cookie has ended. Last night I won by flushing the last bag of mini-Oreos in the house. :cry:

9. They're yummy little cookies.. |

Little sponge cake cookies with orange filling and dark chocolate coating..they're a Brit import. We have a shop up at Harvard Square that sells them..see if you have any British food markets,or any that sell imported foods. They are quite yummy. Siobhan=sha-VONN,so "chiffon"isn't that far off:)

I used to consider myself well-read, 'til I started reading more.
The last couple of years have taught me I've missed out on nearly all mythology. Richardo, I'm guessing that you know a bit w/ the reference to Scylla & Charybdis. Can you recommend a good, concise "mythology for beginners?"

I love your additions! LOL
And I was wrong about the last bag. Kathy had the last one in her lunch box, left over from today's lunch. It's still there, waiting for tomorrow's lunch. (She's promised to leave it at work if she doesn't eat it.)
