Cookies are a common favorite among children. I remember how much I enjoyed dipping my grandmothers cookies in milk. This was one of the first things on my mind after school. More than fifty years ago, I enjoyed baking cookies with my grandmother. Today I still enjoy baking cookies. However, if time is of the essence, then I'm willing to purchase them from a local bakery.

Cookies are a common favorite among children. I remember how much I enjoyed dipping my grandmothers cookies in milk. This was one of the first things on my mind after school. More than fifty years ago, I enjoyed baking cookies with my grandmother. Today I still enjoy baking cookies. However, if time is of the essence, then I'm willing to purchase them from a local bakery.
From Cook Jar to Gift Box
When I was a child, the house often smelled of oven-fresh cookies. Those cookies that weren't gobbled up right away were stored in a beautiful glass cookie jar. My grandmother did most of the baking, so after she passed away we rarely had homemade cookies. Fortunately, my parents continued to satisfy my sweet tooth by purchasing tins of store-bought cookies. After some time, my mother discovered that we had acquired a surprising number of cookie jars and tins. In fact, we had nearly fifty of them.
Although my parents wanted to recycle these cookie jars, I wanted to keep them. They would be the first collectible cookie jars to enter my collection. I was happy to have such a beautiful collection of jars. Soon I made an effort to expand my collection. My relatives and friends contributed collectible cookie jars to my cause. Anyone who had an extra cookie tin would save it for me.
It didn't take long for me to run into a problem. I had to many collectible cookie jars to keep in my bedroom. I consulted with my father, and he agreed to build me a display case to hold my many collectible cookie jars. At this point I had an incredible assortment of cookie jars. There were made out of all sorts of materials. They were glass, tin, paper, cardboard, plastic, and even wood. They were a variety of shapes and sizes. The display case looked great and showed off my collectible cookie jars very well.
It didn't take long for my collection to become well known. Kids from my school knew about it. My relatives and neighbors came to our house to see it. A friend of mine fell in love with one of my collectible cookie jars and offered to buy it for a few dollars. I agreed and she used it as a beautiful gift box. Soon other people began to buy cookie jars from me.
I started to make some pretty good money selling my collectible cookie jars. I had such a wide assortment and so many people seemed to like them. This led me to eventually start a business specializing in gift boxes. It wasn't too hard because I already had a great collection to start from. It didn't take long before I started to ear real money. Who could have guessed that my childhood hobby would grow into a career?
