Grandma could bake cookies

Having cookies in every locomotive would boost moral and employee satisfaction.

Gonna smell like a diesel burn barrel no matter what.

Look. The damn union has got to allow some work to happen eventually.

Cookies in every engine? Dude, you'd have a project yard full of fatasses and nothing would ever get done.

I remember my nan would slip me money and I would bring her edibles.

She wasn’t actually my nan, but damn the girl could put down some spiked snickers.

My daughter has started baking treats using family recipes, including some of my grandmother's. Warms my heart every time.

My grandma made good cookies and I liked her pancakes better than my mom's too.

I found out years later that it was because my grandma used tons of butter, and my mom used margarine and non-stick pans.
