At 11.45am there was a line up the block to even get inside. Now there's a line for everything in this town. I'll try again later but may have to pass on this lovely event this year if the crowds continue. Good for them though.
ReplyDeleteCookies are amazing! Got there early and came right home (past the drunken jerks in red) to enjoy!
ReplyDeletegoing tomorrow so much for my low sugar diet....
ReplyDeleteSuccess shortly after 3pm! No lines to all the cookie deliciousness.
ReplyDeleteGot there before it opened, and found a line of about 20 people - apparently New York magazine mentioned it, so there were a lot of new faces that had no idea what to expect, and the lines to get in, buy boxes, and get cookies continued to grow the entire time I was there. They've given a lot more floor space to stuff like photo booths and tchotchkes, so the cookie section feels sort of cramped, not expansive and airy the way it used to, but damn, those little discs of flour, butter and sugar are still the best around, and the church people that work the floor in their cute red t-shirts are very sweet, so I'm happy to support them and purchase 18,954 calories that I really don't need while doing so.
ReplyDelete@Gojira: I'm glad I have no idea how many zillion calories are in the box I bought, but I do believe that all that yummy baking will show up directly on my personal bottom line very soon!
ReplyDeleteToday [Sunday] is the [mini] Vegan Shop-Up at Haymaker's Corner Store, and I'm stoked to go; they have cookies and more—much more!
