A cigar is sometimes just a cigar, but a cookie is always a metaphor. Irma Rombauer wrote the Joy of Cooking when her husband died. Paula Deen opened her catering business when her husband left her. When Aunt Alexandra descended upon the Finch household to preserve its dignity while Atticus defends the hopeless, Miss Maudie Atkinson baked up a Lane Cake so loaded with shinny, it made one tight. Baked goods, it seems, can save your soul.

Tonight, I had too much grief and now I have too many monster cookies. Anyone got any milk?

Come to Nick's on Milwaukee and I'll find some milk for you... Maybe a beer too.

I'd hug you, but I'm afraid I'd spill the milk all over you, and that would just make your night worse.
