Default Macaroni salad

shortly after i quit (to go work in software), Mrs. Field's
stores started getting all the cookies in as frozen,
premeasured lumps of frozen dough. i strongly suspect the
taste changed for the worse at that point, because they were
obviously cost-cutting (& because the stores closed around 2
years later, for lack of sales)

a 5 gallon bucket of peanut butter is just WAY too stinky
that early in the morning...

the brown sugar & vanilla smell of the other cookies never
bothered me. my unfortunate child doesn't get peanut butter
cookies & that job was almost 20 years ago... but he seems
happy with chocolate chip, oatmeal, & other cookies.
