Can anyone suggest a place that has a large selection of homemade cookies besides Publix?

...AND.....our friends at FREEDOM Pointe are NOT one bit "cooky"......
............BUT.................I would call them extremely courageous.

...I appreciate their sacrifices while defending our country.......
..............................................and thank them for our FREEDOM.

NOW.....I am wondering......did the name FREEDOM Pointe come about
because the "majortiy" of the "pre-sales" were to retired Military.

My friend who owns Hollywood Cafe in Wildwood makes her own cookies and all of them are delicious. Her name is Ellen so if you go there please tell her I sent you. She used to be the baker at Freedom Point until she opened her own business 2 years ago.

Sam's Club has a nice variety of large cookies in the bakery section. I like the white choc macadamia nut.

If you just want ONE really good cookie, stop at Chick-fil-A. Probably the best Chocolate Chip Cookie around. Sort of surprising for a fast food place, but really good cookie!
