in the 70s, Food of the Seventies

Comments left:	Apparently these were a thing before the 70's. I remembered my mom commenting many years ago about how they had served these at school. I didn’t fully realize what she meant at the time. I just remembered her smiling. (Granted, it was early 70’s when she told me this.) Fast forward to 2016: Mom has cancer, she’s not doing well, and she’s been placed in hospice care. As you can imagine, we’re all wracking our brains for anything that would make her feel better… that would make her smile. I remembered the cookies. My brother located some on his next grocery run. They were lovingly offered warmed, with chocolate milk, as soon as she felt like a snack. She smiled, and chuckled “I used to eat these in kindergarten.” Now mom was born in 1933, and I don’t know what age she had kindergarten, but I am grateful that windmill cookies are still sold many decades later. And even more grateful for the memory.
