This is going to sound very odd, but here goes:
We got married in '81, and my husband's grandmother died 6 mos later. He was very close to her and one of the things we got was one of her cookbooks "The Cookie Book" I found out from someone, maybe someone here? that it was from the 60's. My little boy, when he chose a book at night to be read from at night, ALWAYS chose The Cookie Book! I'd just go through it with him sitting at my side in the rocking chair, him sucking his thumb. Each page had a row of cookie pictures at the bottom, with its name, and I pointed to the pictures and said the name.
He LOVED this book, and before I got to the middle of it, he was asleep. What a neat thing to fall asleep to, cookies on the brain.
I say give the baby a cookie book!
(I have the book put away, to be given to him and his bride when they get married. I plan ahead, he doesn't even have a steady girlfriend!)
