Cookie Folklore

cookie story is a prime example of urban folklore. It has been
circulating widely on the 'net and in other media for some time.
This is at least the third time it's appeared in my e-mail in the last
few months. This recipe has an interesting variant--4 cups "flower".
Oh well...this might be used to kickoff a discussion on urban folklore
or folklore on the 'net but I wouldn't bother circulating it in the
hopes of damaging Neiman-Marcus, whose PR people are probably already
laughing all the way to the bank.
Cheers......Denise O'Brien
