Tigger Groped Me Cookies

from Bittersweet by Rick

Here is a little recipe that was created by Korrine.

This summer we had a trip to the Magic Kingdom where we dined at the Winnie the Pooh buffet. It is already awkward trying to stuff your face with giant plush toys walking around miming to you, but it natural gets worse.

We instantly befriended Tigger. He refused to leave our table even though the majority of the restaurant was three year olds begging for his attention. He started ripping napkins and breaking straws in half, making these crop circle drawings in the center of our table. He even had to grab a straw out of a child's hand to complete it. It spelled out, "C. P."

We had no idea what that meant. We still don't.

And then he would not stop posing for pictures with us. Then he started hugging me. Right here

And basically squeezed my chest five times consecutively.

Awkward.
