Ike Strikes!

On September 12th, Ike hit the Gulf Coast. Millions were left without power, including myself. As of today, I still don't have power at home, although today I see workers repairing the downed poles in my backyard.

My production kitchen was without power for a week. I had to discard all cookie dough and ingredients from the coolers and freezers. Very sad! After this delay, my crew and I are fervently working to restore our inventories and get ready for the holidays (yes, they are knocking at our back door).
To commemorate this historic event, we have designed the "Ike" cookie. We will donate 50¢ from the sale of each cookie to Gulf Coast Ike Relief Fund. Please visit michaelscookiejar.com for more information.
