I don't even really consider myself a cookie person per se. But someone gave us a little box of of them during the holidays and since ingesting the whole pile in 24 hours, I have been craving these amazing little treats. Seriously, the past few weeks, whenever I get a sweet tooth, my mind immediately drifts down Ashland Avenue and right on Montrose to address number 1956. (Thank goodness there was a sticker on the box with an address of the bakery.) So finally today when I meant to make a quick run to the grocery, I found myself parallel parking in front of the sweet little storefront bakery. Right now I'm wishing that I was some kind of food critic so that I could know the language to use to tell you about these delectable morsels (how was that?). Try throwing these words around in your head: soft, buttery, light, flakey, sweet. Some have a dab of marmalade inside and when smooth, rich chocolate is used it is used well and with confidence. The next time you are in Chicago, you must demand that I take you to Sweet Signature Bakery.

It's hard to find a good cookie/bakery, so when you do I suggest you eat a lot of them (the cookies that is) in case you never get them again...unless/until you make another trip!

Yes, I'm of the "life is uncertain, eat dessert first" school of thought.
