My mom, Grace and I went out to dinner to Applebees with some ladies from the church. We enjoyed our time very much. A time filled with laughter, prayer, and lots of food. We came home only to find dad pitifully sitting on a chair who had a bad day. It went something like this.
Dad couldn't get his socks off because the previous day he had stepped on class and it cut the top of his foot. Well it was more like a sliced of skin. Gross. Blood was everywhere. So today his socks were dried to the blood on his foot, he hesitated to take his socks off. I was sitting near by where inch by inch he was slowly taking his sock off. After getting it all the way off and only had one part stuck to the wound he decided he needed to just rip it off. He counted. 1, 2, 3!!!! As he ripped it off and screamed from the pain he smacked his knuckles really hard on the coffee table on the way up. Then he started screaming from a different kind of pain and rocked back and forth. Now there was blood from the foot and swollen knuckles from the hand. Mom came over and tended to his "wound" and he screamed once more because she had touched it too hard and he declared she didn't know because it wasn't her wound.
After this drama he then told us about his sad dinner. He had grilled cheese and tomato soup. During the dinner he dropped his soup and broke glass everywhere so he had to clean it all up and went back to a cold grilled cheese sandwich. Then he looked at me really sad like and said,
"So... I ate some cookies to feel better."

Comfort food. It is too bad that we men of God are not yet above the need for it. For me, it is Oreos. But in the case of a really, really bad day any food will do. Your dad is immeasurably blessed to have cookies around. Unless, of course, they had raisins. Raisins in the cookies would have made my day go from bad to horrific.
I agree with Bob. I don't like raisins in my cookies either.
Chocolate chunk, or macadamia nut with white chocolate would be preferable.
All joking aside. I hope your dad feels better.
Who likes rasine?They are the WORST food on the planet!
I agree with you all about raisins. Not tasty at all. I remember eating them as snacks when I was little.
