There comes a moment in every cookie lover’s journey when they realize something has shifted. The tin is empty. The crumbs are gone. And yet… hope remains.

At Cookie Recovery Group, we believe hope is not the absence of cookies — it is the belief that you can survive between appearances. Strength is not resisting the cookie when it’s offered (let’s be realistic), but learning how to function responsibly when it is not. Transformation is what happens when you stop asking “When will they be back?” and start asking “Who am I when they’re gone?”

This is not about forgetting the coconut s’more cookie. That would be unreasonable and frankly unkind. This is about reframing your relationship with it. Honoring its legacy. Respecting its power. And understanding that truly legendary cookies are not meant to be available on demand, no matter how persuasive the group text becomes.

Through shared stories, gentle reminders, and strategic calendar awareness (birthdays, holidays, and suspiciously quiet Decembers), our community learns to stand tall in the in-between. We celebrate small victories — like not checking the pantry again, or successfully making it through a weekend without casually “just asking.”

Hope. Strength. Transformation.
They’re not promises of cookies today.
They’re promises that when the cookies do return… you’ll be emotionally prepared.

And yes — that day will come.
