Reid and I are going to Chicago at the end of the month so that I can attend the BlogHer conference. In talking about the unexpected expense, I said that maybe Grandma Joyce would bake us some cookies so that I won’t have to buy treats. Ken immediately said, “She should bake cookies for me! She could send them in the mail.” He is, afterall, missing out on a trip to the city that is home to his beloved Bears. I know they’re not playing yet but if he were involved in planning a trip to Chicago it would definitely be for a time when we could go to a football game - or maybe just he would go. Reid and I talk during sporting events. Actually, we talk pretty much whenever ;+)

If you’re talking to Grandma Joyce, I like snickerdoodles and peanut butter cookies. Ken prefers oatmeal raisin and *her* ginger cookies (not the ones I make) but mostly he likes oatmeal raisin.
