News; A.I. gift assist; game: guess the bass line?; goodbye/fun facts....grab some flour, butter, and sugar: it's national cookie day. Cookies can be traced back much further than most people would imagine. It is estimated that in the 7th century AD, Persians were some of the first people to grow and harvest sugar cane, which would have eventually been turned into baked goods. One of the greatest things about cookies: they come in hundreds of shapes and sizes and flavors and are relatively simple to make. In the 17th century, Dutch settlers introduced "koekjes" to America. These treats became popular, leading to the American term "cookie." So let your inner cookie monster enjoy a batch today.
