i just got Rob Halford's memoir as an audible book.
its fantastic. I was not the biggest fan of Judas Priest - i was less into metal when i was young, and all in with punk and glam of the mid/late 70s.
but his story is pretty great, and its awesome to hear it from his mouth - as a gay kid fronting a hell-raising heavy metal band. and of course, there's all the leather he wore.
Is there a cookie that instantly takes you back to someone special? Spill the crumbs—I want to know what sweet treats live in your memory.
I’ll go first. My parents? Total cookie lovers. . We always had a stash of Pinwheels (those chocolate-covered marshmallow beauties), old-school iced oatmeal cookies, and those ridiculously fun frosted animal cookies that made snack time feel like a party. It was such a treat for us kids to have cookies.
And when the cookie jar ran dry? No problem. I’d play mad kitchen scientist—mixing margarine (yes, the fake butter), sugar, and a little flour until I had a makeshift cookie dough. Desperate times, delicious measures.
Your turn. What cookie takes you there?
