Tickle Me Tuesday ~ Cookies


It's Tickle Me Tuesday again, and again it's all about food for me!  I know!  But these cookies are really good, and I don't usually like store bought cookies.  Unlike the Fig Newton bars of my youth, these cookies, Newtons Fruit Thins, are thin and crisp (which I also don't usually like) and full of flavor.


There are four flavors.  Cranberry Citrus Oat, Blueberry Brown Sugar, Fig and Honey and Raspberry Chocolate.  I have found only the Cranberry and the Blueberry and am on the hunt for the Raspberry Chocolate!  They are perfect with my afternoon tea and could easily become a habit!


I'm hooking up once again with Yes, Teacher! for Tickle Me Tuesday.  Pop on over there and see what has been tickling the fancy of others!

What is tickling your fancy?

    Hello Annette!

    those cookies are just my type! I like them thin, crunchy with bits of dried fruit. My favourite is the fig and honey. Yum!

    We just discovered these too - The blueberry tastes just like PIE!!! The fig is my second fav - haven't tried the other two yet but nothing better with a hot cup of tea at night!

    I'm not a big fan of cookies either, though thin crispy ones are okay. My favorite would probably be chocolate chip ones made with peanut butter chips instead :)

    I grew up eating fig newtons at my grandparents house, and I still like them (probably out of sentimental reasons) but I don't eat them that often. I should try these.
