RIP Mother’s Cookies

The economic downturn and the rising price of fuel and food has hit home, at least for those of us in the western part of the United States.

Mother’s Cookies, a staple for decade has filed for bankruptcy and is ceasing all operations effective yesterday.

Well-known for pink and white frosted animal cookies (along with a variety of holiday versions) they had been in operation for nearly a century.

No word yet if anyone will pick up the products.
