    PA post from Mom! 34 years ago today you were born and I was told of this diagnosis called Down syndrome, which back then, I knew nothing about. Following that the head nurse visited me, sat in the edge of my bed and said there is no shame in wanting to give my baby with DS up for adoption. Well I TRULY hope those days are OVER. My life has been BLESSED and full of LOVE. I have become the best version of myself because of you Collette and everyday I feel so lucky God trusted me with you. Thank you for this amazing journey in life and the gratefulness I feel everyday. That is all because of you Collette. Happy birthday darling❤️.

    LOVE - LOVE - LOVE Message to Collette I stumbled onto your cookies and was intrigued by the cinnamon chocolate chip. I have not seen that combination in a grocery store before, so I tried it. They were a pleasant surprise. Neither flavor overpowers the other. They also have a good level of crunch without being dry. I enjoyed them quite a bit. Later, I noticed the packaging and that you have Down syndrome and employ others with disabilities. I used to work in home health care and have met many people with disabilities that could work, but lacked opportunities. What you are doing with your business, providing opportunities and visibility for people with disabilities, is wonderful. Thank you so much for actively working to make the world better. I wish you all the luck in the world and hope for your continued success and growth. Thank you for all you are doing. Leah

    I am not sure which way to go here and could use your opinions. I am making a new cookie, a shortbread, thinking a few things... Vegan- Plant Based? Lemon or plain ? Please leave your comments!

    Well last night experiment for a NEW Vegan cookie ended up in my garbage. Trying again tonight! Have some thoughts on what needs to be changed! Once I have it I will let you know the new flavor! Or maybe you can guess...
