Cookies for Breakfast

Nonagenarian Cora Sheffield had been adamant. She was moving out and starting over. Her niece, Rocky, was equally adamant. Cora had lost her mind. After all, Rocky was the one who was being forced to start over. Rocky had lost her job.

As it turned out, starting over was amazingly easy for the spunky, eccentric Aunt Cora. Without a second thought, she packed her bags and took up residence at an exclusive assisted-living facility. Rocky, on the other hand, couldn't seem to find her way. Every time she managed to clear a path through the mess Aunt Cora had left in her wake, something or someone appeared on the scene to derail her desire for an uncluttered, uncomplicated life.

In the end, Cookies for Breakfast reminds us that life isn't lived in a straight line. The unpredictable zigzags along the way may make the journey a wee bit scary, but a lot more fun.
