In October, Mother's Cookies closed. I didn't hear about it until yesterday evening. I know it sounds stupid, but seeing these pink sprinkle cookies get cut makes me think things are worse than I realize. I grew up on Mother's frosted oatmeal cookies.Mother's Cookies, an Oakland institution for 92 years, has been shuttered, its owner seeking bankruptcy protection for the company.
The ending was abrupt: Workers for the company, which shifted its baking and distribution operations to plants in Ohio and Canada in 2006, told workers Friday that operations would cease and cookies would no longer be made as of Monday.

I didn't know that either. That is very sad.
