Last October, we learned that Mother's Cookies, the iconic west coast cookie maker who baked up those cute little pink and white frosted animal cookies, was going out of business. People who knew and loved their cookies were heart-broken, so many of us grew up eating those be-sprinkled cookies and couldn't imagine a world without them in it. Happily, we no longer have to mourn the passing of those cheerful cookies, as the Kellogg Company announced on Wednesday that they will buying the Mother's brand and will be bringing back their most popular flavors, incorporating them into their snacks business unit. Oh happy day!

Circus Animal cookies were one of my favorite types of cookie when I was in school. Not only were they sweetly addictive, but they were covered in frosting, decorated with sprinkles and shaped like animals. When combined, those traits make up a combination that is irresistible to kids. The fact that the "animals" were next-to-impossible to identify was not an issue, since my primary objective when faced with the cookies was to find the white ones with the most sprinkles and eat them first.
