Thursday, May 7, 2009Kellogg revives Mother’s Cookies
San Francisco Business Times
Circus animal lovers rejoice: Mother’s cookies are back.
Mother’s Cookies, known for those pink and white circus animal cookies and iced oatmeal treats, closed its Oakland operation in 2006 and in 2008 ceased operations entirely, to the dismay of many loyal fans developed over its 74-year history.
Kellogg Co. (NYSE: K) purchased the trademarks and original recipes in December 2008, and has begun to re-stock grocery shelves in the Western U.S. with the Mother’s brand. In addition to the circus animals and iced oatmeal cookie, Kellogg will also bring back taffy, vanilla crème and English tea cookies, among others.

Needless to say, there is a lot of work yet to be done. Also, those of you with keen eyes and perceptive minds may note that the water in the pond is a bit cloudy. Someone – I shall not name names – used a water based caulk to bond together the two halves of the spillway (hidden under the rocks where the waterfall is). Uhmm, this caulk kind of dissolved into the water. It should clear up soon.
The black rubber base does cause an interesting problem: because it is so hot here, the water is evaporating on its way back to the pond. So I am going to have to constantly refill it until I get enough plants and shade around it to help keep it from evaporating so much.
After all these years of having drought tolerant plants, rocks and dirt in the space behind the pool, we finally have a new lawn back there. Here are some pictures!
6 shows – May 20th – 24th, 2009
Billys – David, Kiril, Tanner, David, Kiril, Trent
Michael – David B. was Michael all 6 shows
As some of you may recall from my London review, I have neither the time nor the patience to write 6 reviews, so I will do what I did last time, going over the show scene by scene. And I am not going to shy away from the negatives, so if you want a review that says everything was perfect, go away. 
Also, there are some spoilers here!

The Plan
Leaving Tuesday, May 19th, mid-day and driving to San Francisco to stay at a hotel near the airport so I can get up Wednesday morning at…..3 A.M. for a 5:45 flight to Denver, then Denver to LaGuardia – do not ask why I am not flying direct!! But I am flying First Class for the first time (for the trip over, anyway)!!!
I have 5 BETM’s scheduled and most likely a 6th if I get into New York on time on Wednesday. Also have a very cool special event planned for Friday! Will tell you more about it when it happens.
And…………I am gong to meet some awesome people who I only know online so far!!
Incidentally, it is possible that I will never actually eat dinner when in New York. We have two group dinners in the works, one for Thursday night and one for Friday, and so far no one can agree on where to eat! It is New York, people!! How hard can it be??? 🙂
