Sometimes in life, the people most unlike us make the greatest impact. It happened to me 11 years ago. I began noticing an elderly gentleman in the Midwestern town in which we both lived. What was unique as I observed him was that he was always delivering homemade cookies. I was a reporter at the local newspaper and I thought he might have a story to tell. I parked behind him one fall day as he was delivering cookies to employees at a bank. When he returned to his vehicle I struck up a…

Imagine the softest stuffed animal you have, and then imagine it being hand-sewn my the sweetest woman in your life, your grandmother. Back when I was 3 years old, my grandmother, Eleanor, sewed me a snowman and gave it to me as a Christmas present. When I opened the present, I immediately saw the pure white fabric, a bright orange nose, and two black buttons as eyes. Quickly after unwrapping the present, the snowman and I, whom I named Eugene, quickly became best friends. When I first received…

“Nursing is one of the fine arts: I almost said the finest of arts.” -Florence Nightingale We sat down and her purse got its own seat. Kate was wearing a gorgeous smelling perfume that filled our area. The table was full of lunch foods and two chocolate chip cookies. The first 20 minutes of our meeting was purely catching up. We chatted about our days and mutual friends. Her phone rang and that brought our attention to the purpose of the meeting, which was the interview. I learned so much…

Throughout her early years of life before her creation in 1924, she had received her diploma of household arts from Framingham State University. Until 1930, she lectured on different types of food and was a dietician. After her career, her and her…

Susie had never won the Friday friendship friend of the week but this week was going to be different. Susie's friend Johnny had always won every Friday and she had never come close.

applying the ones that worked to the challenging situation. It is best to start cookie-making and learning from your mistakes when the mind is clear and refreshed. This fact is true because the more scattered the thoughts are, the more likely you will make miscalculations. A salty cookie or an incorrect assumption can result from too many other ideas in your head all at…

going out to eat. Since can’t just go to a restaurant and order one item, lets add one cookie which made home was a $0.19/cookie or for 3 for $0.57 vs McDonald’s soft baked cookie for $0.39 or 3 for $1.00. A cost difference between $0.20/cookie or for 3 difference of $0.57, which may not seem like a lot in terms or one to three cookies, but I was able to bake 24 cookies which is a difference of $4.77 of purchasing…

Being one of the only latino families in the community of Medford, I grew up aware of the fact that I wasn’t as similar as my classmates around me. By the time I had been old enough to understand this, I had already received subtle hints and jokes that referred to my race. It didn’t bother me then, until I was aware of the assumptions that came with it. In the summer before 2nd grade, the most talked about event was “Sign Up Day”. It was a day in which we could go and choose our extracurricular…
